- Picture looking up 600 feet to the top
of a natural granite dome.
The spectacular view is just one of the many
at Stone Mountain State Park.
Now add horseback trails, great fishing and amazing hikes
and you can see why this is one of our state's
most popular parks.
- A lot of people like to come to Stone Mountain.
One of the reasons is because it's one of the
largest state parks in North Carolina.
We have over 14,000 acres within the park.
- [Derek] Another reason is the park's
impressive granite dome.
But there are many other reasons
people like to come here as well.
- [Edward] We have a variety of recreational
opportunities here at Stone Mountain State Park.
Camping, backpacking, lot of nice hiking trails.
We have a large camp ground
here at Stone Mountain that's very popular.
We have sites for tents, we have sites for groups
and we also have some nice RV sites.
There are 21 miles of hiking trails within the park.
They're range in difficulty from fairly easy
just to walk out a small waterfall,
to very difficult to go over the top of the mountain
round by the base.
[bright music]
And then to view one of our largest waterfalls
in the park, which is about 200 feet high.
- [Derek] That would be Stone Mountain Falls,
a strenuous hike down and back.
- [Edward] The other trails in the park
most of 'em are small loops.
Get you on top of other granite domes within the park
can rock out so that you get good views
of the Blue Ridge escarpment looking back towards
the Appalachian Mountains and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Our main trail...
Is about four and a half miles long
and it goes from the base of the mountain,
around to the side and over the top.
It rises over 600 feet from the base.
The granite dome itself offers some great views.
- [Derek] Stone Mountain is one of North Carolina's
popular climbing destinations,
with over 70 routes to ascend.
- [Edward] Climbing is done by self-registration here.
You fill out a permit at the base of the mountain.
There's a display and you tell us which routes
you're taking and when you expect to be back.
It's mainly a spring and fall destination
because the dome is south facing.
It gets pretty hot during the summer.
So you don't see a lot of climbers in the summer
but you see them in the fall and the spring.
- [Derek] The stocked streams make this
a favorite park for anglers too.
- There's over 17 miles
of trout streams in the park.
Lot of opportunities to fish some of the smaller creeks
and some of the larger creeks here in the park.
The east part of the Warren River
flows through the park.
It's one of the stock streams and it's very popular
with the trout fishermen.
- [Derek] At the base of the mountain,
is the 1855 Hutchinson Homestead,
one of the park's historic sites.
And Garden Creek Baptist Church, established in 1897,
is also located in the park.
- [Edward] And services are still held on Sunday.
- [Derek] Stone Mountain State Park
has something to suit almost any outdoor enthusiast.
From those seeking a peaceful commune with nature
to those wanting to embrace it more vigorously.
This is Derek Long for North Carolina weekend.
[bright music]
- Stone Mountain State Park is located at
3042 Frank Parkway in Roaring Gap.
