Besides the skiing, there is plenty to do. You can drive the Blue Ridge Parkway and check out the beautiful scenery. Linville Gorge is a neat place with waterfalls and caverns. There is also Tweetsie Railroad, a small amusement park, for the kids. The town of Boone is also nice, with a college atmosphere. Other quaint towns include Banner Elk and Blowing Rock (you can also visit the rock, where if the wind is right, things you drop will “fall upward”)
