Had some friends ask me to take them hiking. If you are ever in Western North Carolina or looking for a place to hike DuPont State Forest is a beautiful hike. The Last of the Mohicans was filmed in part of the area as well as at Chimney Rock near Asheville. The Hunger games was also filmed at DuPont. It’s an easy hike with 4 major waterfalls, easy but long. Only 3 of us made the entire hike most everyone returned to the parking lot, lol. It’s about 12 miles maybe? I think that’s what the fitness app measured. Close to Asheville. There’s so many beautiful places to hike in North Carolina.

Wow....that is beautiful scenery......seen both films mentioned......im abt 4.5 hrs from Asheville.....been thinking bout a trip to see the biltmore.....i did hike up to clingmans dome one time in late november....abt died and that was abt a 1.5 mile hike, however in my defense really steep grade and it was cold, drizzly and thin air that tome of year....to top it all off, when i got to the lookout, it was so foggy/cloudy, couldnt enjoy the scenery...... .anyway, nice pics josie......thanks for sharingBenny / Western Highland Rim / Tennessee

Thanks for the pictures. You may have brought another tourist to the spot. Will definitely ask for more information when we decide. I've been getting alot of ideas from Tammy about seeing the Northern lights so that is probably a trip in near futureMissouri
