Go during the week to avoid crowds and be prepared for steps from hell! Or use the elevator for easy up

Great place to visit if you’re in the area. There are trails available that are family friendly such as the hickory nut trail which ends the a waterfall. Be prepared to dish out $15 for the entrance.

"Prices are admittedly a little steep, but the food was honestly delicious, very fresh, and made to order — not prepackaged."

"Aside from the actual view on the top of Chimney Rock this was my favorite view on any of the trails. You can get a great view of the Appalachian Mountains on your left."
Christine Jenkins 
"A place to enjoy the view as you make your way to Chimney Rock itself!"

"Great hike. We viewed the fall from both the top and the bottom. On June 1, 2021 there was not a lot of rain so if you choose to do only one, I definitely recommend the view from the bottom."
Christine Jenkins- 7.5
"Admission is $8/ adult, which is pretty steep for a small beach. Parking is also very hard to come by. I ended up parking (maybe illegally?) at the resort across the street."
