One of the Most Beautiful Times of the Year

With the open mountain ranges, the clear air, harvest sunsets, no one can resist the High Country during the changing of the leaves. The colorful season usually starts in October and only lasts but a few weeks. When the cool fronts mosey in, the leaves all start to paint themselves in deep reds, oranges, and golds. Long range views from the parkway and cabins give for a Norman Rockwell vision of autumn, something truly beautiful that makes it worth the while.

The High Country has been featured in literature all over the world for this surreal time of year, and many majestic events and festivals take part in making it as beautiful as possible. So make your plans now, as it's still warm enough for hiking, outdoor activities, and the parkway and Grandfather Mountain are open!
