Located at the foot of 5,721-foot Mount Pisgah, this is one of the highest campsites in the state and one that all but assures of a cool night’s sleep. Privacy is a premium here as well, with most sites nestled into tight rhododendron groves that give the impression you’re at a remote campsite. The Mount Pisgah camp store is across the road, as is the Pisgah Inn, if you don’t care to cook. Then there’s the immediate access to the Mountains-to-Sea Trail and hundreds of additional miles of trail in the nearby Shining Rock and Graveyard Fields areas.

Scott WoodWhy is a shoe in the travel section? Because, I never knew what shoes to wear to the airport until these came along. They are super comfortable, light, slip on and off easily for TSA, and yet are totally fine for the hotel gym, a morning run or even an unplanned hike. This is the way to go for travel.
