The hike at Linville Falls is a must. There are many books and maps in the kitchen detailing the many hiking options off the Blue Ridge Parkway. This house is situation in the middle of excellent hiking including the following: All three of the Linville Falls hikes (Erwins View Trail, Linville Gorge and Plunge Basin): (There are places to grill burgers on the river and we enjoy doing that if we can pack a cooler and get organized). There are all kinds of good hikes between Linville Falls and Blowing Rock on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Check any of them out, the trailheads are thorough. Our favorite is Stack Rock Overlook. The drive over the Linn Cove viaduct on the Blue Ridge Parkway is dramatic. Grandfather Mountain has lots of hikes, the bridge can get congested, I see they are requiring masks for that now. It might have less traffic than usual. Crabtree Falls is a nice hike near Little Switzerland.
