Excited about my visit to Chimney Rock. This is my second trip to this beautiful area of NC. My first visit was way back in 1994. I remember this well as I was recovering from major back surgery.
i wanted to experience the 75-mile panoramic view overlooking Lake Lure and the 14-mile long canyon that is the Hickory Nut Gorge. The chimney has stood for over (wait for it) 500-million-years and can be accessed by climbing 500 steps, (this is actually hard physical effort). If you make it all the way you are rewarded with dramatic scenery.
Trust me, it’s worth the effort!. Oh did I mention you can also take the elevator 😂
