The famous Blue Ridge Parkway is America's favorite drive. That's because the scenic route winds along ancient ridges, plunges into lush valleys and zooms through green pastures and brilliant fall foliage. At its peak it climbs to nearly 4,000 feet in elevation. Rediscover the thrill of the open road. And pack a picnic lunch. At 469 miles, there are lots of places to stop and enjoy the view in Virginia's Blue Ridge.
