This updated edition of Hiking the Blue Ridge Parkway is ideal for anyone who uses the Parkway as a portal to the Southern Appalachian experience.

Look inside to find: Hikes suited to every ability, from 0.1-mile nature walks to 13-mile backpacks, with options for longer treks Accurate directions to both popular and less-traveled trails Up-to-date trail descriptions and detailed trail maps Difficulty ratings and elevation gain for each hike Mileage log for the entire Parkway and a guide to wildflowers Tips for zero-impact hiking, trail etiquette, and hiking with kids
