Several animals in the park have become another animal's dinner! Join us in being a detective as we look for clues to figure out what animals have been on the hunt at the park. To solve this mystery, we will be learning about animal tracks, seeing real animal bones, and solving a few puzzles along the way. Think you can crack the case? Join Park staff on top of the mountain at the upper parking lot. This program will be weather permitting, and all ages are welcome. Please sign up by emailing pilot.mountain@ncparks.gov
Mount Mitchell State Park is now reopened to the public.
The Blue Ridge Parkway is open up to the state park entrance but remains closed from just past Mount Mitchell through milepost 334 near Little Switzerland. Please read our blog post for the most up-to-date information on park access and trails status.
