Hiking
The Babel Tower Trail leads you from the western rim of Linville Gorge down into the valley towards the Linville River. Along the way, you can expect to see cascading waterfalls and a large stone spire which the trail is named after. There are great views of Table Rock Mountain from the viewpoint at the end of the trail.
