Pros: Absolutely Beautiful Cons: This is wilderness so be prepared
Linville Gorge is breathtaking. It is truly one of the wonders of the earth. From the steep cliffs and trails to the virgin timber in its awesome wonder this area is a magical place to visit. My preference is in winter as you are in a very small group who venture the rugged terrain and temperatures. Be wary of deep caves like the one near Spence Ridge Trail as I encountered a black bear in that one a few years ago. When the river is in full flow it is awesome to see and hear. This is an area where you must be prepared and have the right gear.
