Sugar-Grove
is located in the Pisgah National Forest in North Carolina's western mountains, near the Tennessee state line. Outdoor recreation is key to Sugar Grove, where you'll find 14 hiking trails, 10 horseback riding trails and the Boone Fork Falls, which offers a picturesque show of multiple cascades. Surrounded by rugged mountains and crystal clear streams, Sugar Grove is the kind of place where you can fish for fresh trout, go white water rafting or hike a forest trail, or just stay in your car as you enjoy the spectacular scenery of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Nearby attractions include The Tweetsie Railroad, Linville Falls and Linville Gorge, Grandfather Mountain, and the Sugar Mountain Ski Resort - all within a short drive of town. Many of the picturesque, small towns in the area hold arts and crafts fairs, festivals or farmer's markets and other special events throughout the year. Any direction from Sugar Grove you drive seems to take you to someplace unique; the town of Beech Mountain is the highest incorporated town in the Eastern U.S. and Banner Elk is home to the exciting "Woolley Worm Festival. The village of Blowing Rock is famous for the rock formation for which the town got its' name - a deep gorge that creates an unusual current of air that spirals up from the valley floor below. All of these mountain towns offer charming shops and art galleries, craft and antique shops and quaint inns and restaurants. Sugar Grove makes a peaceful, secluded base town from which to explore this entire area.

Sugar Grove Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
The High Country in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina has four mild seasons that help support the busy tourist trade. The mountain valley temperatures average 6 to 8 degrees cooler than the nearby Piedmont region in the summer months, and near the mountain peaks, it can be 10-20 degrees cooler. Moist southerly winds are forced upward in passing over the mountain barrier, causing showers and thunderstorms in spring and summer. Due to mild summer temperatures, the mountains have always been a welcome escape from the heat at the lower elevations. Summer nights are crisp and cool, but not too cold for camping or other outdoor activities. Although it does snow in the region, large amounts of snowfall and severe low temperatures are rare except at the highest peaks. Therefore most ski resorts use snowmaking equipment to ensure a reliable supply.
