Overlook Description

This overlook is just before a high bridge crossing Sim's Creek. There is a trailhead for the Green Knob Trail at this overlook. The Green Knob Trail is a 2.2 mile looping trail that is considered moderate to strenuous. About halfway through the trail you will discover a spectacular view of Grandfather Mountain with Price Lake glistening in the sun below.
