We went as a group to Sliding Rock - it was about a 90 minute ride from where we were staying in Bryson City, NC. You should arrive before noon, as parking does become an issue. It is an incredible experience - and also very cold water!! Sliding Rock in Pisgah Forest North Carolina USA

Just an hour outside Atlanta is a private residential community unlike any other. The kind of place where you can separate yourself from the pressures of the everyday—and spend time with those who matter most.A place that’s Civilized By Nature. A mountain retreat that feels like home. This is Canoe Life. And you’ll only find it at Big Canoe.Sliding Rock in Piggish Forest North Carolina USA

Located in the Pisgah National Forest just north of Brevard, 7.6 miles from the junction of US Highways 64 and 276, is Sliding Rock, one place where you’re invited to “take the plunge” down a 60-foot slippery cascade into the 50-60 degree, 7-foot deep pool.Sliding Rock in Pisgah Forest North Carolina USA





Waterfalls near Asheville can be even more spectacular to see during the winter months. Leafless trees often make for clearer views. And experience magical icy scenes during winter cold snaps in our North Carolina mountains. Not only are the ice formations incredible, but the absence of crowds make for a very personal experience. Above is Looking Glass Falls, always our very top choice in the winter since it's roadside and easy to reach from Asheville. Sliding Rock in Pisgah Forest North Carolina USA

Visit Chimney Rock Park this March, 2012 and enjoy a guided hike to Hickory Nut Falls, one of the tallest waterfalls east of the Mississippi River at 404 feet.  Dates of the complimentary guided tour are Mar 3rd, Mar 10th, Mar 17th, Mar 24th, Mar 31st.  The hike is free with paid Park admission.North Carolina Famous Places USA 


Although you stand at the bottom and look up at Chimney Rock and think wow...that looks great. Then you hear that the elevator is broken, so you will have to climb 500 stairs to get to the top. Trust me, it's worth the climb to the top. Amazing views all the way up and down the mountain.North Carolina Famous Places USA 



There are many US mountain towns to visit, and some of the most beautiful are in the West. Some of these towns have become famous resorts, while others have remained small and relatively unknown. Regardless of how well-known they are, all of the US mountain towns in the West are unique and interesting.North Carolina Famous Places USA
