Ridge
Parkway

the north: From Hwy 19-E, turn south on NC 226 at Spruce Pine, NC and
travel about 5 miles to the entrance to The Blue Ridge Parkway
(across from the NC Minerals Museum).
From the south: Take
exit 86 on I-40. Follow NC 226/US 221 past Marion and WalMart. In
about 9 miles, turn left, following NC 226 as it separates from US
221. In another mile, NC 226 turns right and heads up the mountain.
At the top (road T's), turn right, under the Parkway overpass
and immediately follow signs up to The Blue Ridge Parkway. Then follow the
directions below.
At the Mineral Museum:
Take the Parkway NORTH (left). Pass 2 scenic overlooks and
then look for a small horizontal sign for Orchard Road (3
miles from the Spruce Pine Parkway entrance.) This entrance to
Orchard Road leads you quickly to The Orchard and to the red packing
house.
