When you are seeking total nirvana in the best of Americana, it’s gotta be the Blue Ridge Parkway. This pastoral mountain road is actually a series of parks that stretches nearly 500 miles between the Great Smoky Mountains and Shenandoah National Park, making it one of the most unique and breathtakingly gorgeous journeys any traveler could hope to experience.
Not only is this rugged course steeped with heritage from America’s earliest days, it provides a glimpse into the possibilities of Appalachia’s future. Take time to enjoy almost 300 panoramic overlooks and multiple mountain ranges, including Mount Mitchell, the highest peak east of the Mississippi. Soaking up the sights will be easy–the speed limit never tops 45. Ready to lose yourself on “America’s Favorite Drive”?
