Located at Milepost 350.3 on the Blue Ridge Parkway, Green Knob Overlook is one of the many nearby summits you can see from the overlook. This is one of the most notable views on the section of the parkway close to Mount Mitchell. The expansive viewpoint is actually in the Hollywood movie Last of the Mohicans.

Getting up to Snooks Nose is no easy feat; the shortest trail to the summit gains almost 2,000 feet in only two miles.

If you are looking for a longer day, you can continue north on Snooks Nose Trail towards Laurel Knob and Green Knob.
