Mother's Day is just over a week away. If you're not sure what to do to show your mom, grandmother or wife how amazing you think she is, show her the beauty of Western North Carolina by taking her on a Tour de Falls of DuPont Forest for Mother's Day. Throughout the entire weekend (May 12th & 13th), 12 mile long tours of Bridal Veil Falls, High Falls, Lake Julia and Triple Falls will be available via shuttle bus every half hour beginning at 9am and continuing through 2:30pm.
For a small donation of $12 for adults (ages 18+) and $6 for kids (ages 6-17), you can embark on a tour of some of the most breathtaking natural sights in all of Western North Carolina. Just park your car near the High Falls parking area (1300 Staton Rd, Cedar Mountain). Follow the Tour de Falls signs for your shuttle pick up. You are allowed to take as much time as you like. Typically, the tour will take approximately three hours to complete. Volunteers will be aboard every shuttle as well as at every stop to give historical information as well as fun facts about each area you visit. There will be no food for sale on the tour, so please feel free to bring a nice picnic lunch, water and/or snacks from home. Both High Falls and Triple Falls will be nice places to have covered areas with tables for your Mother's Day brunch. While the lodge at Lake Julia does provide some light refreshments, it is the last stop of the tour.
Donations are accepted in cash or check form. But leave the credit cards at home, since there is no way to process them on the shuttle. None of the buses are handicap-accessible (sorry) and pets will not be allowed access to the bus. Show the beautiful mom in your life that you think she's just as amazing as the natural beauty found in Western North Carolina by taking her on a Tour de Falls of DuPont Forest for Mother's Day.
