None of the hikes in the park are difficult so it is perfect for the family and casual hikers.

The carriage trails are all immaculately maintained and well-graded. Today the park is an excellent destination for hikers, horseback rides, and motorists. Prior to being controlled by the NPS, Moses Cone and his wife retired to this estate building over 20 miles of carriage trails, three lakes, and an observation tower on the highest point in the estate, Flat Top Mountain. Located just outside of Blowing Rock on the Blue Ridge Parkway, this estate was donated to the National Park Service in 1949 after the death of Bertha Cone. Cone Memorial Park packs many views into relatively easy terrain and mileage for the Blue Ridge Mountains.
