Blue Ridge Parkway Mobile App

“The Blue Ridge Parkway Association has launched a new mobile travel app just in time for the fall leaf season. The new mobile app helps plan a trip to the Blue Ridge Parkway and surrounding regions.

The new travel app included GPS mapping for hundreds of points along the Parkway, historical information, lodging and camping options, major hiking trail descriptions and visitor services on the Parkway and in nearby communities.”

We are excited to see a great tool to help visitors experience the Blue Ridge Parkway. Known as “America’s favorite drive” the BRP is a great destination for families to come and see Western North Carolina and Virginia. With amazing scenery around every corner and the rich history of the Appalachian Mountains, there is something for everyone.

We will be using this on our tours and we encourage everyone to get the app to check out some great spots on their next visit.

See you on the road!
