A true hidden treasure along the Blue Ridge Parkway (MP 320.8), the 0.6-mile Chestoa View Loop Trail provides an easy leg stretcher through a scenic forest capped off with a spectacular view of the surrounding mountains. Or you can opt to skip the trail and make a beeline straight to the rock balcony. However I highly recommend the hiking trail so you get the full experience of the Chestoa View Overlook!
