A cluster of large, photogenic boulders and rock slabs set beside wooded trails near Montreat Rd — ideal for close-up texture studies, low-angle compositions and intimate landscape shots. Easily reachable from the roadside with informal parking; no entry fee. Best visited at golden hour for warm side-lighting or after rain for richer colors and moss detail. Weekday mornings are quieter; expect uneven footing and bring good shoes.
