Include Pilot Mountain State Park in your next visit to Mount Airy
Pilot Mountain State Park, 1792 Pilot Knob Park Road, Pinnacle NC (336) 325-235. Approach from any direction and see Pilot Mountain rising more than 1,400 feet above the rolling countryside of the upper Piedmont plateau. Dedicated as a National Natural Landmark in 1976, this solitary peak is the centerpiece of Pilot Mountain State Park. Treat yourself to a horseback ride or challenge the river from raft or canoe. A seven-mile woodland corridor joins two sections of the park, each section offering a wealth of opportunities for outdoor fun. The mountain segment, which includes the two pinnacles, contains most of the visitor facilities. The more primitive river section centers around the lazy, meandering Yadkin River. http://www.ncparks.gov/Visit/parks/pimo/main.php
