At 5,964 feet above sea level, Grandfather Mountain is the highest peak in the Blue Ridge
Mountain Range and the only private park in the world designated by the UNESCO as an
International Biosphere Reserve. Cross the mile high swinging and experience the thrill of
a lifetime. Be sure to bring a jacket since the wind blows almost continually here and the
highest temperature was 83' in August 16 years ago.
Grandfather Mountain
offers 12 miles of hiking trails from moderate to challenging. The most difficult trail is
2.3 miles long and starts at the summit's visitor center. It crosses Grandfathers highest
peaks on it's way to the pinnacle and eleven ladders are placed in order to traverse the
cliffs. For anyone wanting to experience the thrill of a lifetime I highly recommend this
spectacular mountain where a natural, savage, beauty abounds.
Below you will find
the account of what creationists like myself believe happened to cause these rock
formations, although we do not believe any rock is millions of years old, these formations
are still very unique and show the majestic work of an awesome GOD.
