The Blue Ridge Parkway is America’s favorite drive. With hundreds of miles of twists, turns, and scenic pullouts, you can spend as much time or as little time on the parkway as you like. The Maggie Valley entrance to the parkway is close by, and within an hour’s drive is the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Waterrock Knob, Graveyard Fields, Devil’s Courthouse and Mt. Pisgah, the highest point on the parkway.
