Chimney Rock Park (Near Asheville, NC)


Chimney Rock Park boasts that it has the "best of the North Carolina mountains in one place." For the last 100 years, tourists have journeyed to see this 500-million-year-old towering monolith, and the park's "one-stop shopping" for what the mountains are loved for: dramatic scenery, exhilarating hiking trails, rare plants, native wildlife, and one of North Carolina's highest waterfalls at 404 feet (featured in the movie The Last of the Mohicans).


Chimney Rock Park is located 25 miles SE of Asheville and soars above Chimney Rock Village, a ½ mile town situated in a deep gorge lined with shops, craft galleries, ice cream parlors, restaurants and more. For more information visit http://www.chimneyrockpark.com/ and www.chimneyrockvillage.com.
