This video is sponsored by Mitsubishi Motors. In the Blue Ridge Parkway, high up in the Great Craggy Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, is the Craggy Gardens. The Craggies are known for the exposed surfaces, or “balds,” found at this high altitude, which can only be found via the most scenic hiking route up the mountain and through gorgeous garden tunnels. In spring, travelers can see what makes the Craggy Gardens extra special: the show-stopping display of colorful wildflowers that bloom along these high slopes. On this road trip, adventurer Sharon revisits one of her favorite places from her past travels, and reaches the top for a stunning view of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
