Stretching almost 500 miles through North Carolina and Virginia, the Blue Ridge Parkway provides visitors with a series of panoramic views, protects significant mountain landscapes, and is a "museum of the managed American countryside."
The protection of the Parkway and surrounding region is an immense task, with much at stake. The Parkway of tomorrow will be defined by the extent to which people today are willing to speak out on behalf of the Parkway and to invest in its future.

There is no shortage of waterfalls along the Blue Ridge Parkway! The mountains and foothills of Western North Carolina are laced with waterfalls, from the cascading, multi-level Linville Falls, to simple, small, burbling but beautiful falls found in branches and creeks, especially after a rain.
