South Mountains State Park
South Mountain State Park is located south of Morganton, North Carolina. I have been fascinated by the park since my first visit in early 2007. I visit the park on a regular basis and currently I am trying to hike every trail that the park has in an attempt to experience more than what most visitors see and do.
The main highlight for most visitors to the park is High Shoals Falls, a beautiful 80 foot waterfall. The park is also a popular spot to fish, mountain bike, and ride horses. Other highlights in the park include Chestnut Knob overlook and Jacob Fork River Gorge overlook.
