The Blue Ridge Mountains span 550 miles through eight states along the east coast—from North Georgia to Southern Pennsylvania.

Blue Ridge Mountains: Where To Go?

Before choosing your Blue Ridge Mountains vacation property, you’ll need to decide where to go. As mentioned, this range stretches 550 miles and goes through eight states: Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.

Most of the area is connected by the Scenic Blue Ridge Parkway, which is 469 miles long. It’s America’s longest linear park and is one of the most beautiful ways to explore the area.

For your vacation, you’ll need to decide what area you want to visit, which will determine the Blue Ridge Mountains vacation property you need.

The Blue Ridge Mountains Travel Guide has extensive resources about the many areas you can visit on your vacation.

Here’s a brief overview:

  • Blue Ridge Parks: North Georgia State Park, Western North Carolina State Park, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, or Pisgah National Forest
  • Blue Ridge Mountain Towns: There are many small urban areas throughout the region, such as Blue Ridge, Georgia; Asheville, North Carolina; and Roanoke, Virginia.

Overlooks to visit:

  • Craggy Pinnacle
  • Linville Falls

  • Elk Mountain Overlook
  • Pine Tree Overlook
