Grandfather Mountain's mission is to inspire conservation of the natural world by helping guests explore, understand, and value the wonders of Grandfather Mountain. In order to do this, we recognize the importance that everyone plays in stewarding the conservation of this great natural treasure. For this reason, Grandfather Mountain is our mountain.

About Grandfather Mountain:

Grandfather Mountain is a place of amazing biodiversity and scenic beauty that towers 5,946 feet above northwest North Carolina. A unit of the United Nations’ Southern Appalachian Man and Biosphere Reserve, the mountain is estimated to be 300 million years old – with certain rock formations dating back 1.2 billion years.

One third of the mountain is operated as a scenic travel attraction by the Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation, Inc. All proceeds from sales of tickets and souvenirs go toward preserving Grandfather Mountain and sharing its wonders in ways that deepen visitors’ appreciation of nature and inspire good stewardship of the earth.
