Hiking
Chimney Rock is located in the state park of the same name in North Carolina, near the area around the beautiful Lake Lure. The actual 96-meter-high rock can be easily climbed via several flights of stairs. In true American style, there is even an elevator, and the summit plateau is of course well-decorated and offers a fantastic view of the Broad River valley.
