Before your trip up to Hanging Rock stop by our tabling event to guess the identity of tracks left behind by local wildlife and learn the best ways to identify who left them. Expect to gain a better understanding of wildlife tracking that you can use on your next hike. This program is suitable for all ages. Please RSVP to Ashlyn Wray at andra.dalton@ncparks.gov .
Mount Mitchell State Park is now reopened to the public.
The Blue Ridge Parkway is open up to the state park entrance but remains closed from just past Mount Mitchell through milepost 334 near Little Switzerland. Please read our blog post for the most up-to-date information on park access and trails status.
