Wiseman's View Scenic Overlook in Sugar Mountain is a beautiful and breathtaking spot. Located near the town of Banner Elk, North Carolina, it is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the area. The overlook provides visitors with stunning views of Grandfather Mountain and Linville Gorge from atop a mountain peak that rises 7500 feet above sea level. Visitors can expect to see an unparalleled panoramic view of the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains from this point.
The overlook was named after Wiseman's family, who were some of the first settlers in the area. They used the land for hunting, trapping, and gathering timber for their homesteads until logging became an industry in the late 19th century. A road was eventually built up to what would later be known as Wiseman’s View, allowing more people access to this beautiful spot.
Today, visitors can make their way up to Wiseman’s View by car or even on foot if they’re feeling adventurous! The road leading up to the lookout point is paved with asphalt but requires careful driving due to its winding path. Once you reach Wiseman’s View, you will be able to take in all its beauty from a distance—which includes seeing rolling hills covered in lush trees and distant mountains softly rising above them like giant mammoths. Birdwatchers may also catch sight of several species here including hawks, owls, ospreys, eagles, vultures and falcons soaring over this picturesque landscape.
If you choose to hike up instead of driving your car then prepare yourself for a rewarding journey! Alongside breathtaking views of nature at its finest, hikers can also get some exercise while trekking their way through steep ascents and descents dotted with boulders and wildflowers. Be sure to bring plenty of water since there are no fountains at Wiseman’s View; however there are picnic tables and benches next to it for resting during your visit. All-in-all visiting Wiseman’s View is an unforgettable experience that will leave you with lasting memories!
