100 Classic Hikes North Carolina

The ultimate guide of the best hikes across the mountains, Piedmont and coast of North Carolina.

What a journey it has been…

I can still remember the day Mountaineers Books reached out to me with a life changing offer. I couldn’t believe my inbox. Find and hike the 100 best hikes North Carolina has to offer. Three years and a record setting natural disaster later, I turn in my work this summer.

It has been an incredible experience to witness the diversity of this great state. It was a privilege to fall in love with North Carolina all over again. I adore a cool, high-elevation hike in a dense spruce forest, but I also love a loblolly pine stroll and a boardwalk in the salt marsh for breakfast. The creative freedom to hike this beautiful state and bring this guide to life will forever be a joyous chapter of an adventurous career as a professional writer and photographer.
