Pinnacle Ridge Tunnel — photo spot in Blue Ridge Pkwy, Waynesville, NC 28786, USA
Pinnacle Ridge Tunnel
Pinnacle Ridge Tunnel on the Blue Ridge Parkway offers a photogenic roadway cutting through forested ridgelines — great for moody fog, autumn color, and dramatic leading lines. Accessible by car with small pull‑off parking; no entry fee. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm side lighting, or pre/dusk for long exposures of traffic. Weekdays and shoulder seasons reduce crowds; foggy mornings and late‑fall produce the most atmosphere.
