ROAD TRIP: Driving the Blue Ridge Parkway, Cherokee to Asheville, NC
Channel: Southeastern Frontiers
Date: 25/07/2021

A road-trip along the last 84 miles of the Blue Ridge Parkway from Cherokee to Asheville, NC.  Beautiful scenery and pleasant driving along a part of America's longest linear park.

For this video I did something different than usual.  My wife and I drove the southern end of the Blue Ridge Parkway (#blueridgeparkway).  We started at the entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Cherokee, North Carolina and took the scenic route to Asheville.  The weather was part sunny and part raining which made for dramatic views.  There was very little traffic and way to many overlooks and viewpoints to stop at them all!  I highly recommend driving this route to anyone who is looking for and endless stream of pleasant driving and beautiful views.

The Blue Ridge Parkway is noted for its scenic beauty, and is America's longest linear park.  At 469 miles long, it links together the Shenandoah and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.  We drove only a small portion of its length south of Asheville, but had an amazing trip.
