The Mountain Region of North Carolina
From April until the end of October, the mountains of
North Carolina are a favorite spot for visitors. You
can enjoy a myriad of activities, go to craft shows and
festivals, visit historic parks or simply find a high spot
and take in the view. During early spring and summer, the
mountains may be wet and cool, so be sure to have a jacket
or sweater. As summer temperatures peak, so does the traffic,
but there are many motels, inns, lodges, bed and breakfast
to accommodate the traveler. And, if you like to really
get back to nature, there are campgrounds for the various
types of camping.
The busiest time of year is in October. At this time the leaves are changing
and the leaves of reds, gold’s and all the colors in between
rival the rainbow with their riveting colors! It is well
known by many that the peak is usually around the third
week. So, be sure to book your campsite, cabin
or place of lodging well in advance as many places fill
up fast.
