Top Winter Hikes in Mitchell County
1) Roan Mountain - Carver's Gap
Roan Mountain is local and tourist favorite to visit in all four seasons. On Carver's Gap, you will have the options for hiking the iconic Appalachian Trail, Jane Bald, Grassy Ridge Bald, and Round Bald to name a few. The views showcase the beautiful NC/TN Mountains.
2) The Orchard at Altapass - The Loop Trail
The Loop's Trail is not only a fun hike to do when the Apple Orchard is open, but exploring the property in the winter allows you to check out some epic views. If there are people in your party that hiking might not be their thing, they can still enjoy the view (inside their car) at the Loops Overlook!
