Biking
Beech Mountain and the surrounding areas have several great mountain biking trails with miles and miles to ride. The Beech Mountain Bike Club alone has developed 11 rugged trails with over 40 miles of terrain.
The Blue Ridge Parkway also offers bicyclists 470 miles of picturesque travel across Virginia and North Carolina. Elevations vary from 600 to 6,000 feet, and the road encompasses a variety of ever-changing weather conditions, regardless of season.
The Parkway was designed as a scenic leisure road for motorists, and therefore bicyclists should be prepared for significant distances between developed areas and services that vary by season.
