High Country springs are absolutely breathtaking. We encourage you to try to come during April-early June to catch the celebrated wildflowers of our region. A good place to make your first stop is the Daniel Boone Native Gardens which display many indigenous plants with labels. It's a great place to become familiar with the plants before you hike. Grandfather Mountain also has a plant exhibit inside the Museum and is very instrumental in the preservation of flora and fauna in our area
