Walk in the footsteps of moonshiners of decades gone by. Visit the remains of two old moonshine stills and learn about the very interesting, and sometimes tragic, history of our local moonshining activities. Guests will meet an interpreter at the Visitor Center then drive to the hike location. This hike is over steep, uneven terrain and is difficult. High top shoes, long pants, insect spray, and a walking stick are advised.

Local musicians entertain weekly with their unique Blue Ridge Mountain sounds. Market also includes local hand‐made artisan gifts and crafts. Food truck vendor on site. Most of the vendors accept cash only. Held rain or shine!

Enjoy the sounds of local musicians as you take in our beautiful park. Nearly every Friday during our Summer season, the park hosts a different artist who will share their musical talent with you. Bring a chair or a blanket to the Gazebo at Lakeview Lawn as there is very little seating. The alternative location in case of bad weather is Picnic Shelter 1. The concert is free, but donations to the Friends of Hungry Mother...
