Blue Ridge Country July/August 2021 - 35
rock climbing and hiking abound. For
a breathtaking stroll, join a Bridge Walk
tour on the 24 " -wide catwalk (yes, inches!)
spanning the 3,030-foot gorge span
850 feet in the air.
At 276-acre Hawks Nest State Park,
find a peaceful lake and some of the
most popular and exciting whitewater
in the country. Walk through the nature
museum and ride the aerial tram (seasonal)
for the best views. For an unusual
roadside attraction, see what all the talk
is about at The Mystery Hole two miles
east of the park.
2. Lewisburg/Moncove Lake State Park
Stop in this hamlet of 4,000 folks and
you'll quickly see why it's " America's
Coolest Small Town. " Boutiques, antiques,
museums, theatre and charm coalesce
to create a distinctly cosmopolitan
atmosphere. Walk historic downtown for
a glimpse at dozens of renovated 18th
and 19th Century homes, businesses
and churches. Look under the surface in
the Lost World Caverns-leisurely and
self-guided or for mud, water and tight
squeezes, take the wild cave tour.
Put Moncove Lake State Park on the
birding destination list. As one of the " funnels "
on the Atlantic Flyway, migrating
birds pass through here by the hundreds.
(Insider tip: autumn for Broad-winged
Hawks!) This small 250-acre park with 88acre
lake is tucked into the hills beside a
500-acre wildlife management area. For a
quiet getaway, visit for the day or set up at
the campground.
