Razor's Edge Rock offers some of the best views in all of the Linville Gorge Wilderness. The viewpoint can be reached by scrambling up some rocks at the end of a spur trail branching off of the main Rock Jock Trail. Your views from the vantage point are of the Linville Gorge area and out into Cherokee National Forest.
