Ash Bearpen Knob via Tanawha Trail()

trail_hike_comments: This excellent trail, completed in 1993, follows the contours of Grandfather Mountain above the Blue Ridge Parkway. It travels through interesting and diverse geology and forest environments, including northern hardwood forests and spruce-fir forests. Rough in places. Provides access to views, waterfalls, some neat, sturdy footbridges, large trees, huge boulders, and access to trails in Grandfather Mountain State Park, Rough Ridge and the Linn Cove Viaduct., trail_bike_comments: None
