Grandfather Mountain is the highest peak on the eastern escarpment of the Blue Ridge Mountains. We recommend checking out the Mile-High Swinging Bridge if you have the nerve to walk across America's highest suspension footbridge!
Blowing Rock is a village on the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway located about 30 minutes away from the venue. It’s named after The Blowing Rock, a formation with sweeping views of peaks, forests and the Johns River Gorge. This is an excellent place to find accomodations or simply check out during your visit.
