One of the top highlights and memories of visits to Grandfather Mountain nature park is walking across the famous Mile High Swinging Bridge. Since 1952, visitors have “oohed” and “aahed” at the bridge’s 360-degree panoramic views. America’s highest suspension footbridge gives easy access to the spectacular views atop Grandfather Mountain’s Linville Peak, elevation 5,305 feet. The 228-foot suspension bridge spans an 80-foot chasm at more than one mile in elevation (hence the name!). To reach the Mile High Swinging Bridge, drive the two-mile, winding scenic road up the mountain to the summit parking area by the Top Shop. Climb 50 stairs adjacent to the parking area or inside the Top Shop to reach the short pathway to the bridge. Also, an elevator in the Top Shop takes you to the third floor for a level walk to the bridge.

Great little amusement park with an old-timey Old West theme. Steam engine train ride is the highlight, along with other rides and fair food. Thomas the Train usually visits once/year, and the "Ghost Train" in October is fun for all ages, though the Ghost Train ride can be frightening at night.
A great place for some family fun or for a cute little date. There is quite the adventure course as well.
Whether you visit in summer or experience the magic of a Tweetsie Christmas, Tweetsie Railroad and Theme Park is sure to be an unforgettable memory for the little ones and their older companions.
