About the Blue Ridge Parkway:
The Blue Ridge Parkway is a National Scenic Byway that runs for 469 miles, mainly along the crestline of the famous Blue Ridge Mountains, which are part of the Appalachian Mountain range. Built to connect Shenandoah National Park in Virginia to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina, the parkway began construction in 1935 as part of the New Deal to provide jobs during the Great Depression. The Blue Ridge Parkway has become the most-traveled road in the National Park System, earning the nickname “America’s Favorite Drive.”
