A second visit to the Tanawha Trail




Within a few days of my last Tanawha hike, I got to visit again. This time it was just a short walk from the Linn Cove Viaduct visitors center. The walk was to a long footbridge constructed over a rocky ravine within sight of part of the viaduct. This area was the last part of the Blue Ridge Parkway to be built and is adjacent to Grandfather Mountain.
