Car Clubs at Chimney Rock Park NC

Bring Your Car or Motorcycle Club to the Best of the Mountains in One Place

Corvettes, Jaguars, BMWs, Harleys – your car or cycle club will enjoy traveling the scenic byways that lead to Chimney Rock at Chimney Rock State Park – just 25 miles southeast of Asheville, NC. Getting here is half the fun. As many of you know, the Park was home to the Chimney Rock Hillclimb, a Sports Car Club of America-sanctioned event for 50 races between 1956 and 1996. Follow in the tracks of decades of car enthusiasts as you drive the winding, three-mile road into the Park.

Spend two hours or an entire day with us. Take the 26-story elevator to the top of Chimney Rock to marvel at the 75-mile views or explore our four hiking trails and 404-foot waterfall. Our five-acre Meadows is the perfect spot to showcase your cars and take group photos. Choose from a variety of fun activities and a full range of catering options.
