Standing at an elevation of over 4,000 feet, Hawksbill Mountain offers panoramic vistas of Linville Gorge, Table Rock and the surrounding Pisgah National Forest. Its name comes from the distinctive rock formation resembling a hawk's peak.

At 3,940 feet, Table Rock Mountain is a rocky summit in the Linville Gorge Wilderness. It's one of the most visited peaks in the entire wilderness, but the other trails apart from the main summit trail offer a lot of solitude. There are various overlooks along this long-ridge peak.

The Chimneys is a 3,527 foot tall mountain named for a series of rock formations that stand on its peak. The summit can be reached via the Mountains-to-Sea Trail and you can carry on further north to reach Table Rock Mountain. The area is also popular with rock climbers.
