Review:
Nature lovers will delight in the thickly wooded slopes of Pisgah National Forest , whose 500,000 acres are home to hiking trails that extend for more than 1600 miles over rivers, past cascading waterfalls, and through the beautiful North Carolina wilderness.
There are several tall peaks within the forest, including Black Balsam Knob, Cold Mountain, and Tennant Mountain. Trails to the summits of these peaks vary in length and difficulty for hikers of all ability levels, and camping in Pisgah National Forest is permitted at both established campsites and in backcountry locations.
