Love the blue ridge highway! I just wish it was longer! The green and those flowers were amazing. And the animals were great! Especially those beary cute cubs! Love the sunset too!
Thanks so much for sharing this!! The view is so great. I love the area. I live in the Charlotte area and need to go visit soon tbh. I miss the mountains, they are so peaceful and great to experience. Love the editing and keep up the amazing work with your content. Can’t wait to see more. New subbie btw. 😊
Thoroughly appreciated the seasonal advice and the blooming spectacle you witnessed! Your bear encounter tips are invaluable, it's not everyday you get such practical insights for trail explorers.
I’m glad you finally got there at the right time. The rhodendrons tunnels are beautiful. Glad to know June is best time. Great tips! Those baby bears are adorable!
What a beautiful area!! I love all the green and all the nature! These trees are beautiful, I wish I could smell them! The views in this video were breath taken! Great video my friend!
Geeee, those views are spectacular. Also the wildlife is a big yes for visiting this place. Really it looks like a trek NOT TO BE MISSED :)
Beautiful! This is right up our alley! Super informative, and you're giving us more ideas to check out next time we make our way down there. I'll grab the travel guide too! That's a great idea and we just actually started doing the same thing. Thanks again!
Very nice area for hiking. I like the very old trees in the craggy gardens, they look almost majestic. The views from the top look amazing. So cool.
The view is amazing! I love the clouds and the colors! Amazing place to visit. If I'm ever in the neighborhood!
It clearly was on your todo list for a while ! You may feel an overcast weather isn’t ideal but while hiking I rather do it without the sun beating me ! I loved the fact you described the route nicely. (Nothing worse than walking around senseless) well done Christy ! I am a new subscriber and I will come back for more. Eddie.
I love the blue ridge parkway! I've only really down the VA side but, it's some of the best driving and hiking I've ever done. Good on you for coming back every year to get there in time of the blooms. The views from the trails are amazing. I'll have to mark down this area outside Asheville for the next time I come through. I appreciate the depth of info you go into as to how to get there from Asheville as well as hotels to stay along the way. A true, natural tour guide. Be beary careful when around the cubs. Momma don't mess around. It amazes me how big the bear population is out there. An excellent adventure Christy
It was good to know the best time of the year to travel there. Quite informative. Blue ridge looks amazing.
Great view of the mountains, love exploring the outdoors
Absolutely stunning especially the sunset/sunrise at the 5 minute mark.
So beautiful! We need to head back to the BSP. When we went the weather was too cold! These trails looks like a fairy tale!
I really like your timberland boots. I’m going to look for a pair like that. The view from the top is amazing! You’re right the clouds clearing did make for a cool view. It kind of looked like the mountains were glowing
This video is loaded with such great information! Good to know the best time of year to visit this trail (and I’m glad you were able to finally see the blooms). And great tips on what to do if you do see a black bear.
Such a beautiful scene
This was amazing!! Loved the animals 🐻😍
so well organized video, liked the chapters, i felt its a completely packaged video if you want to know about - Blue Ridge Parkway Rhododendron Tunnels at Craggy Garden. The flowers were amazing and the Bear , Amazing views and great content.
I’m not a nature girl but this looks really nice to go explore!
This was awesome! I love animals x glad you had a good time 😊💓
It's crazy how every time you go on the same trail it can be a different experience depending on weather. 3 years in the making! Wow. Way to stick with this one. I love the trail with the tunnel feel up the trail. Looks so beautiful. I really liked this video as I love hiking. I assume there wasn't full bloom of flowers at the entrance because it doesn't get as much sun like up the mountain. This hike looks great to bring my little guy
What a lovely view from the top!
Those trees and foliage make it look like something out of Lord of the rings. So cool 😎 I think I could handle the bees as long as I could get that view. Lol. I like that its short hike with a great view and you can still get a good view even from the parking lot
I wish I knew about your channel before I went to Asheville! I went on the Blue Ridge Parkway but I took the parkway on the way back to Atlanta. I ended up stopping at the Devil’s Courthouse peak to take photographs. But I would love to check out this area. Looks nice! Saving this for my next trip to Asheville!
I would definitely enjoy visiting here. It looks alot like how hilly areas in my country is
What a great place! Finding the right time to go is sometimes difficult! I know because I live in an area with pear and apple blossoms. They come and go around April, beginning of May. But one year they're early and this year they were very late...
Anyway, I wouldn't think about bears, something we don't have to worry about here in Europe.
And good to warn people to take a trash bag, because we sure do want to #leavenotrace!
What a lovely area and views. I’m not familiar with rhododendrons- do the flowers have a nice smell? With so many that area must be very fragrant
You almost got me dizzy at the start ! 😅
