DuPont State Forest

Another gem in the Carolina mountains is DuPont State Forest, located between Brevard and Hendersonville, N.C. Pictured above is Triple Falls, one of several breathtaking waterfalls located on the more than 10,000 acre tract. Much of the land was opened to the public after the state of North Carolina acquired it from DuPont Corporation. In subsequent years, more land was added, and development of facilities to accommodate visitors is ongoing.

For details about hiking and visiting DuPont State Forest, visit the unofficial website at http://www.dupontforest.com/.

What are you waiting for?

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

- Mark Twain
