Take Ox Creek Road , you will see the sign for the Blue Ridge Parkway at the corner of Reems Creek rd. Ox Creek Road gets a little steep and curvy as it gets close to the Parkway. Head north on the parkway approximately 20 minutes. You can take the first entrance to the gardens but it’s a steep hike to the top, or for a leisurely walk to the top take the trail at the visitor center.
