  • Lovely little capture of Hooker Falls in Dupont Forest by @losethetrail for our #waterfallwednesday feature. This picturesque ledge-style waterfall tumbles into a little pool that's pretty perfect for an afternoon swim. And it may look familiar even if you've never visited yourself and that's because it was featured in the film The Last of the Mohicans. 💦 . Explore this and nine other popular falls in the area following the link in our profile. ☝️ . #explorebrevard #brevardnc #dupontforest #waterfall #waterfallsofig

  • Whether you’re behind the wheel of a fancy convertible or a family wagon, we've got two bucket list road trips you'll want to consider for your next adventure in the mountains of North Carolina. 🚙 . Route 1: The Transylvania County Loop (taking you into Pisgah National Forest where you can explore Looking Glass Falls, Sliding Rock or the Cradle of Forestry, to the Blue Ridge Parkway where you'll drive south to Devil’s Courthouse then onto US-215 for a winding trip back down into the valley). . Route 2: Caesar's Head Classic (cresting the Eastern Continental Divide, this drive offers a spectacular descent of US-178 into South Carolina, a straight but hilly stretch on the Cherokee Foothills Parkway, then a memorable climb up Caesars Head on US-276 before descending into Brevard). . ☝️Link for directions and details in our profile. . #explorebrevard #brevardnc #ncmluntains #visitnc #roadtrip
