We took Spence Ridge Trail into the park. Before I get to the park let me say that this was a fun trail with lots of rock scrambling and root stair stepping. The views along this trail of the Gorge are amazing.

Now Table Rock puts you up there you'll have plenty of photos to take. Capture it all. Remotely it's one of the higher spots around so that "top of the world" feeling is unignorable. You can work each side to see any direction you want. We took pictures of Grandfather Mountain, Mt. Michelle and the Black Mountains, the Gorge and countless other hills I want to explore.

Now for the Chimneys. Opposite of Table Rock from the parking lot is the trail to the Chimneys of Linville Gorge. EPIC!!! I love the Chimneys. So cool. It's like a forest of rock columns that you go through, around, and over. A rock playground with breathtaking views. When you are up on top of some of the higher ones you get the most perfect 360 degree perspective. If you are able bodied then you owe it to yourself to see this. Made me want to be a Chimney sweep 🤣
