Blue Ridge Parkway

Curious if anyone with a Class C traveled the Blue Ridge Parkway and where to park for the night. Thinking of a trip from Fancy Gap to Cades Cove using part of parkway at least to Mt Pisgah campground.

I would be curious as well as I'm local to that area and new to RVing.

Curious, also. We don't have a C but it's been a very long time since we've been up there. We have a week at Bear Den booked mid-May and plan on it for a base camp. Trying to determine if we want to switch from TT to C or A without the TV. Might be related to the question you are asking.

In addition to the National Park Service site, this website has a lot of good information- especially this table about tunnels. Note the only problems for tall RV's (5th wheels and motorhomes) are 3 bridges down around the south end of the parkway. Read the description of the two columns - it's the right hand column you have to pay attention to - since the tunnels are "arched" and bi-directional, you can't rely on being able to get into the middle of the road for the max height.

North of those bridges you see big tour busses on the parkway all the time.

Many of the campgrounds are quite small and the sites are small. But there are many commercial campgrounds right of many of the parkway exits. You just have to do some planning.

I have never been thru that area and was curious I have heard that you can get thru tunnels ok have to hug center line and hope another RV not coming thru but i read most state you can see from one end to the other of the tunnel.
