Abbott Lake is a 24-acre reservoir right off the side of the Blue Ridge Parkway. The lake offers options for fishing, hiking, and a number of other recreational activities. If you are feeling spry, you can take on a mountainous hike on the Fallingwater — Flat Top National Recreational Trail that leaves from the eastern end of the lake.
