Wisemans View Overlook, off the Blue Ridge Parkway in western North Carolina, oversees Linville gorge wilderness formed by Jonas Ridge on the left and Linville Mountain on the right, bisected by Linville River down in the valley. This is a great vista of a federally designated wilderness area featuring some of the best stands of uncut forest in the southern Appalachians. Tourists come here to hike and camp and the US military holds their wilderness training here.
