Chimney Rock at Chimney Rock State Park is a nature lover’s paradise with spectacular views and incredible hiking trails. They combine to create a mountain experience that is postcard perfect. Climb the steps to the ‘chimney’ or take the elevator up for an amazing view of the surrounding mountains, Hickory Nut Gorge and Lake Lure. There’s an optional choice of hiking the moderate Skyline Trail to the top of the falls or the easy Hickory Nut Falls trail to the bottom of the falls. Both hikes are optional, if you prefer to stay at the top of Chimney Rock and enjoy the views that is totally fine!
After Chimney Rock we will drive down to Chimney Rock village for optional ice cream and a brown bag lunch at beautiful Lake Lure.
