The Mount Jefferson View on the Blue Ridge Parkway is situated at Milepost 266.8. The mountain is tall enough that you can see it in the distance, but the overgrowth near the viewing area blocks off any views that once existed of the lower foothills.

New River State Park in North Carolina offers a variety of recreational opportunities centered around the scenic New River, one of the oldest rivers in North America. New River State Park straddles Alleghany and Ashe Counties in far northwestern North Carolina and protects a 30-mile stretch of the New River. The park spans nearly 3,000 acres across several access areas, with most reachable by car and some only by water. The U.S. 221 Access Area houses the main office, a visitor center, the park's only drive-in campground, picnic spots, a boat launch, and river access. This part of the park also features several hiking trails that wind through lush forests and along the riverbank. River Run Trail and the Hickory Trail are the two primary trails here, and they actually connect to each other to make a nice loop.

The Jumpinoff Rock Trail parking area is located at mile marker 260.3 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The trail is pretty short and super easy to follow, so you can expect to see other people out if you decide to tack the short hike onto your bike ride. The main overlook is on the trail, but there is a pretty great overlook just from the parking area, as well.

The Lump Overlook is at Milepost 264 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The trail to the grassy hillside is pretty popular since it is so short and so easy to follow. This "mountain meadow" is super popular for flying kites and model airplanes and picnicking. The overlook views out onto the trail and the hillside. The overlook can be crowded by trees, but the super short walk up the hill provides great views of sunrises and sunsets, especially in the fall months when the leaves start to change colors.
