Hiking Trails

There is no shortage of hiking trails in this expansive natural area! We recommend parking at The Meadows building or the Animal Discovery Den and then setting off on one of the shorter trails, such as the Four Seasons Trail or the Great Woodland Adventure Trail.

Chimney Rock Park
 

If you are feeling a bit more adventurous and up for a challenge, park in the main parking lot by the Lodge and try the Outcropping Trails. Then, if you are still feeling full of energy due to the incredible views, we recommend taking the Exclamation Point Trail to the higher viewpoint and connecting to the ridge Skyline Trail.

Continue on to reach the picnic table and take photos at the Chimney Rock State Park, NC viewpoint, Peregrine’s Point, and Hickory Nut Falls. Your breath will be taken away by the cascading waterfalls and the incredible views of the town down below, and the never-ending lush greenery!

Animal Discovery Den

The Animal Discovery Den is a fun place to visit if you happen to visit the park during a cloudy or rainy spell. The Den is the ideal spot to bring curious kids or adults to find out more about the park’s wildlife, the animals’ natural homes, the usual habitats, and animals in the habitats which are protected and preserved.
