The official Southern terminus of the Blue Ridge Parkway, is at the coordinates of this listing, Milepost 469, but as we are in North Carolina we consider it to be the start of the byway, known as the South Entrance, & do a space count down of the Mile-posts in reverse order as we drive along.

"The Parkway provides spectacular mountain and valley vistas, quiet pastoral scenes, sparkling waterfalls and colorful flower and foliage displays as it extends through the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and North Carolina." Text Source: (visit link)
