About Mount Pisgah Campground

One of the most popular of the Parkway's campgrounds, Mount Pisgah Campground is perched in the rolling mountains of western North Carolina on the southernmost end of the famous Blue Ridge Parkway. Surrounded by dense hardwood forests at an elevation of 4980 feet, it offers shady, cool respite from the summer heat. Whichever end of the day appeals, spectacular sunrise and sunset panoramic views can be enjoyed from nearby overlooks. Several popular hiking trails, ranging from moderate to strenuous, are accessible from the campground. Drenched in history, this area was once part of the holdings of George Vanderbilt and the site of his hunting camp house, Buck Springs (no longer standing), is close by.

Number of accommodations: 71

The staff is unfailingly helpful and polite, and the surroundings are magnificent. I applaud the park rangers for doing a fantastic job under very difficult circumstances due to funding cuts.

Pisgah is a nice Campground. Easy access to the Pisgah Inn with gorgeous views and right on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The comfort station was easy to get to, and the campground was quiet and peaceful when I stayed. The ranger was helpful warning about bears active in the campground and how to stay safe.

We truly loved this campground. The facilities were clean, our campsite C19 felt private and tucked away from larger crowds, and the weather this time of year was remarkable. We can't wait to come back!

Many great hikes near by and scenic viewing. Camp sites are a bit small so be careful about choosing site if traveling w a trailer.

Loop A had too many sites too close together. Some were on the road with absolutely no privacy.

We loved our camping experience here! Loved the views across the street. Loved the food at the Inn! Loved the hikes in the area
Some of camp sites were very unlevel. But we found one that worked !
We will be back
