On your way down Pisgah Highway before turning on our street, you may have noticed a tall mountain peak with a radio tower standing tall on top straight ahead. That’s Mount Pisgah, the tallest point in WNC!
It’s about a 3 mile hike up. To get there, put “pisgah inn” into your gps to get you in the right direction. A couple minutes before you’d hit pisgah inn, you’ll see a sign for “Mount pisgah parking”, you’ll turn left into the parking area, drive up as far as you can go and park. There you’ll see a big sign for the Mount Pisgah Trail. The rest is self explanatory! At the top you’ll have 360 degree views from the top of the world.
