This was a fun run we did several weeks ago on the Mountains-to-Sea Trail (MST) from the Folk Art Center to a beautiful view of the Haw Creek Valley at Lunch Rocks.
We followed the white circle of the MST which goes in front of the building and stayed on the trail for approximately 2.4 miles until we reached a tree on the right side of the trail that had a red dot along with a white circle. Here we went left and down to Lunch Rocks/Haw Creek Overlook.
Before we knew it, we were on a large rock outcropping surrounded by pitch pines looking west on the Haw Creek Valley and the Blue Ridge Parkway at Haw Creek Valley Overlook at MP 380.
