Linville Falls

Linville Falls is temporarily closed due to damage from Hurricane Helene in 2024.

Two main hiking trails lead to beautiful views of the Linville Falls. Both begin at the Linville Falls Visitor Center and pass through remnants of a virgin hemlock forest mixed with other familiar trees such as white pine, oaks, hickory, and birch. A colorful and varied display of wildflowers decorates the trails in spring. Red and golden leaves in fall beautifully contrast with the soothing green of hemlocks.

Nearby, a campground and a picnic area make wonderful stops on any Blue Ridge Parkway adventure.

Go to our Linville Falls Trail Guide for more detailed information about the trails.
