Under Brown Mountain Lights the Beast of Blandenboro wanders this magical land where lighthouses shine on kingdoms only accessible by ferries. A Lost Colony of legends and pirates revealed in historical sites and majestic mountains with views that make us weep. The home of handmade sculptures and scrumptious cuisine. North Carolina leaves this long-time writer and artist breathless with endless surprises, including the unlikely warmth a winter walk on the beach can bring.
For some, a wintery landscape in North Carolina might be more inspiring than at other times of the year. But if you know this lovely state, that’s a tough call. Every season brings beauty to the already immensely inspiring geographical offerings available here. And while we might stand in awe among the spring wildflowers and vibrant autumn leaves, a dusting of shimmering snow and ice radiantly glimmering in the sun might be the winner. Sunset Rock Trail at Ravenel Park in Highlands is worth the cold climb to a wondrous view.
Discover more about Sunset Rock on the AllTrails website. Bundle up with some winter hiking gear from Backcountry. And while you’re in Highlands, choose one of these fabulous fine-dining restaurants to enjoy.
