Craggy Gardens

Craggy Gardens is a pet-friendly stop off the Blue Ridge Parkway in Asheville, NC. There's plenty of natural wonder to enjoy including violets, blackberries, Turkscap lilies, May Apples, along with a variety of birds and other fauna. One of the popular hiking trails, Craggy Pinnacle, winds through a tunnel of rhododendrons and leads the hiker to gorgeous 360-degree views at the summit. This hike is only a 1.5-mile round-trip hike, making it a relatively easy walk for you and your pup. Visitors to Craggy Gardens can also enjoy the Visitors Center where books, souvenirs, and CDs are available for purchase. Visit Website

    Main trail was closed

    the 1.4 mile retail around the parkway way open but it wasn’t scenic. the other trail people mentioned was closed due to a closed road.

    Beautiful views with lots of dogs

    We hiked from the Craggy Picnic area which had pretty views from the start. Lots of parking. Trail is a there and back with different options for length. We went to the lookout point and it was stunning. We saw many dogs and my dog loved getting outside with us.

    Challenging and fun

    This was a great hike with my dog. It is very steep, and depending on which trail you are headed out on, can be very long. Make sure that you have an athletic dog and bring lots of water and snacks for him/her!
