Special Notes:

  • The weather at Craggy Gardens (even more so than other places in the mountains) can change dramatically, and change FAST. I have been caught in blistering hail storms on my motorcycle that just came out of nowhere. I've been snowed on in June, and spent quite a few times warming up and drying out by the wood burning stove in the Craggy Gardens Wayside Meuseum!
  • Craggy Gardens Visitor Center has restrooms.
