PARK CLOSED DUE TO STORM DAMAGE
On September 28, 2024 WNC was hit by Hurricane Helene causing severe flooding and damage to the area. Chestnut Mountain Nature Park was also impacted by the storm. Trails have been cleared however there was damage to the parking lot that has caused it to be unstable. The Army Corps of Engineers have assessed the damage and now it must go through the FEMA process for repairs. Unfortunately the park will be closed for the foreseeable future. We will post updates as soon as they become available.
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.
