A very cool stop along the parkway with a hike down to the river and falls
Graveyard Fields Hike & Waterfalls的点评
点评:The Blue Ridge Parkway is a 470-mile-long roadway that meanders through the mountains and connects the Shenandoah National Park in Virginia and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina. The parkway boasts about 170 official stops along the path. This site is one of these many stops. The parking lot is not just a pull-off, there are parking spaces, a set of restrooms, and a trail from this stop. There is a large informational display that shows the various sites that can be accessed from this location. There is a set of stairs that leads down to a winding and fairly steep asphalt trail. This trail ends up at the river and a “bridge” that looks questionable but will allow you access to the other side of the river. Hiking up (to the west) will bring you to a set of falls (lower and then upper falls). The trail by the river is not very well marked and is often across rocks in and along the river. Overall, it is a good place to stop, see the river, do some hikes, or just relax. Enjoy.
翻译:Blue Ridge Parkway 是一条 470 英里长的公路,蜿蜒穿过群山,连接弗吉尼亚州的谢南多厄国家公园和北卡罗来纳州的大烟山国家公园。公园大道沿途拥有约 170 个官方站点。该站点是众多站点之一。停车场不仅仅是下车处,还有停车位、一组洗手间和从该站开始的小径。有一个大型信息显示屏,显示可以从该位置访问的各种站点。有一组楼梯通向一条蜿蜒且相当陡峭的沥青小径。这条小径的终点是河边和一座看起来有问题但可以让您到达河对岸的“桥”。徒步向上(向西)将带您到达一组瀑布(较低的然后是较高的瀑布)。河边的小径没有很好的标记,经常穿过河里和河边的岩石。总的来说,这是一个停下来、看河、远足或放松的好地方。享受。
