    Tips

    January 30, 2024

    The summit of Hickory Nut Gap sits on the Eastern Continental Divide at 2,880 feet (878m). The road is lined with trees, offering some much-appreciated shade in the summer.

    A few yards south is the Strawberry Gap Trailhead Parking which is popular with hikers. This is the closest parking area to the summit if you want to pull up and wait for your riding buddies or just have a rest. You will have to go a little further towards Chimney Rock or to Fairview to find any stores or restaurants.
