North Carolina’s forests have long provided its residents and visitors with a wealth of natural and recreational resources. In NC’s four National Forests (Pisgah, Croatan, Nantahala, and Uwharrie) you’ll not only find incredibly diverse ecosystems, but many ways to enjoy them as well. Hike to a waterfall, canoe through a coastal swamp, camp on a mountaintop, or discover exhibits such as the Cradle of Forestry, where the roots of sustainable forest management were planted.
