5 Things to do Adventurous in Pisgah Forest That You Shouldn't Miss

November 10, 2021 Vergie Nakamoto

Pisgah Forest is an unincorporated community in Transylvania County, North Carolina, United States. It sits at an elevation of 2100 feet (640 m) along U.S. Route 64, northeast of Brevard. It is approximately a 30-minute drive from the Asheville Airport. The community lies in an area noted for its many waterfalls and white squirrels. Pisgah Forest is a popular retirement area, at least partly because of the many hiking trails and trout streams of the nearby Pisgah National Forest and the DuPont State Forest.

Devil's Courthouse

Reviewed By cmoney2032 - Toledo, United States

We loved it and did it with a 3 and 4.5 year old. It’s really worth the short time for the great view. It was also good practice for the kids as it wasn’t far but had some different terrain elements. This short walk/hike is not for those with mobility issues or difficulty walking steep grades/loose rocks. It’s paved about halfway on what has to be the steepest pavement I’ve ever walked on. No big deal, but pavement does not equal take a stroller or wheelchair. Can’t be done. The second half the path is loose rocks and rock/dirt steps and some tight portions of path. Again, not a big deal but be aware. We saw all ages doing it but some elderly people were really struggling. It’s really not that far but straight up. The view from the top is great.
