16 min from us. The Visitor Center has tourist information including how to stay safe from bears/weather/etc. You can buy little souvenirs or find out if there is any road closure due to snow on the Blue Ridge Parkway. There is also a trail head right there.

Taking a drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway in either direction from Asheville is great fun, and filled with beautiful vistas. Stop and have a meal of southern cooking at the Pisgah Inn, and/or stop at the Blue Ridge Parkway Visitor Center to see the award-winning film and exhibits which highlight the natural and cultural heritage, economic traditions, and recreational opportunities found in Western North Carolina and along the Blue Ridge Parkway. The visitor center houses a 70-seat theater, information and orientation services, and a retail shop offering books, apparel, CDs, DVDs, collectibles, souvenirs, and children’s items. It is also the site of numerous special events, which can be viewed on the center's website.

The Blue Ridge Parkway Visitor Center is located at Parkway milepost 384, which is about a mile south of the US 70 intersection (or one mile north of the US 74-A intersection) and about 8 miles east of downtown Asheville. The Folk Art Center is located nearby, two miles to the north along the Parkway.

The Blue Ridge Parkway is a 469 mile scenic drive among the Blue Ridge Mountains. You can take shorter routes and exit the parkway to get home faster if you need. Stop freqently for vistas and easy-to-hard hiking trails. Thankfully, the parkway is free from commercialism, so fuel up, bring a picnic and everything you might need for the day and jump on the parkway just outside of Cherokee, NC. If you're headed to Asheville, you can take the BRP the whole way, but it's a much longer, winding scenic route than Highway 40, so plan accordingly. The beginning of the parkway proper is a 20 mile or 30 minute drive from our location, through scenic Cherokee, along the Oconoluftee River. Take 19/74 E, exit 69 for Hyatt Creek to US 19N. From 19N, take Acquoni Road (1368) to 441 N. From 441, turn right onto the Blue Ridge Parkway.
