Welcome to Chestnut Mountain

Chestnut Mountain is a nature-based recreation park, located one mile east from the Town Of Canton, and covers 450 acres of forested ridgelines and coves providing a diverse habitat for a variety of plants and animals. The park consists of a Frontcountry day-use area for picnicking and transitions into the Backcountry as you move deeper into the park where you'll find multi-use trails for both hikers and bikers.

Chestnut Mountain Economic Impact Survey
Economic Impact Survey
When visiting the park you may come across one of these signs for our Economic Impact Survey. The study, in conjunction with the Town of Canton, Montreat College, and Appalachian State University and aims to determine the economic impact that Chestnut Mountain Nature Park and Berm Park have on Haywood County and the surrounding area. Hopefully you have already scanned the QR code to participate but if you haven't, the next time you're there it would help us out a ton if you could fill it out and help us collect data on the positive impact Chestnut Mountain and Berm Park have had on Canton. It only takes a few minutes!
