1025 Orchard Road, Milepost 328.3 on The Blue Ridge Parkway

An October view from the Blueridge Parkway.From 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.
