I go to the Highland games every year and always enjoy it. There were lots of food vendors and decent food. Food is more similar to fair food than Scottish fare but that’s to be expected. It’s a pain having to wait in line for the shuttles but definitely worth it to spend a day here.

The Highlands Games at Grandfather Mountain NC is definitely worth it if you are visiting NC. After the battle of Culloden many scots immigrated to the US, a big amount in the state of North Carolina. The Festival is filled with booths that gives visitors a glimpse of the rich history of all these clans. The games.were fun to watch and the bands gave us all a glimpse of the scheduled.concert tonight. Make sure to sample some Scottish baked goods from House of Douglas bakery. They also do serve traditional scottish fare such as Haggis. There are many shops to purchase souvenirs as well.

We wandered here on a little exploration sidetrack while visiting the area. It was a beautiful site atop the mountain. There are some amazing views from here and we were lucky enough to have my little one see her first snowfall.

It is gravel roads and dirt paths. While an electric jazzy may be great or a three wheel jazzy. A manual wheelchair may be very difficult to push and Control ( it may also wear out the pusher, up all the hills.

When is the best time to stargaze at MacRae Meadows besides night time

Cannot stargaze in the daytime. So it has to be done at night. Sorry, that is the rule.
