Peaks of Otter

Peaks of Otter Image

At milepost 86 along the Blue Ridge Parkway, twin mountain peaks rise to an elevation of 4,200 feet, affording a unique opportunity to experience nature at its best. Since the days of Thomas Jefferson, the Peaks of Otter has been a popular location to enjoy magnificent scenery and beautiful sunrises. Programs and wildlife exhibits are available at the Peaks of Otter Visitors Center. Walking trails, self guided wildflower walks, picnic clearings, campgrounds, charming restaurant and lodging facilities make this one of the most entrancing sites along the parkway.
