During our hike in Pisgah National Forest off the BlueRidge Parkway you will experience mountain views, streams, different wildlife, and all sorts of plants, trees, mushrooms and more. We often finish with extra waterfall views and visits if time permits. We specialize in getting you away from the crowds so that you can enjoy the true beauty that the Asheville area provides, within the Blue Ridge Mountains, on trails more off the beaten path.
All of our guides are licensed with the USFS and have years of experience. Our goal is to make this one of the best experiences of your visit to this incredible area.
We met off interstate 40 west of Asheville (about 20min) at 7:50am to get going at 8am. From our meeting, we drive to the Parkway with quick stops at a mountain lake and a BlueRidge overlook. We finish approximately about 12:30-1PM. We provide water, Gatorade, fruit, power bars and more. You do need your own vehicle as guests often like to drive the BlueRidge Parkway back or stop for lunch per our recommendations.
We do recommend decent footwear at all times of year as the forest gets plenty of rain all year. Consider dressing in layers as the mornings it can be 5-12 degrees cooler over 5000feet. Also a light rain jacket is always a good idea.

What's included
You will get one of the best rated guides in the area who comes with years of experience not just in these mountains but all over the world. We provide water, Gatorade, fruit, powerbars and more. We will take a ton of pictures, candid and more posed, and transfer them to you after the hike. Dogs welcome if they are friendly.
We do not provide transportation. We meet at a location and you follow us in your own vehicle. That is because when we finish not only do people want to do their own thing, but most want to drive back along the BluirRidge Parkway since we are on the pretties stretch of all 469 miles.
