Rock Castle Gorge Overlook — photo spot in 1688 Blue Ridge Pkwy, Floyd, VA 24091, USA
Rock Castle Gorge Overlook
A roadside Blue Ridge Parkway overlook with sweeping views of Rock Castle Gorge and layered ridgelines — excellent for wide panoramas, sunrise/sunset colors, fog and autumn foliage. Easily reached by car with a small pull-off; no fee. Best at golden hour or after fronts for mist; weekdays and early mornings reduce visitors. Light winds and clear-to-partly-cloudy skies reveal depth; overcast days work for moody, even light.
