Description
Wigwam Falls on Yankee Horse Ridge
34.4 mile post Wigwam Falls
Found at Yankee Horse Ridge Parking Area.
Narrow Gauge Railroad Exhibit
Back in the early 1900s, much of the land along the Blue Ridge Parkway was being logged. To get the logs out of the mountains, the lumber companies built narrow gauge railroads. What you see at this stop is a reconstruction of a short section of tracks, though a 50-mile long railroad did follow this exact path. A set of stone stairs located on either side of the parking lot allows you to take a short walk along the tracks and come out on the other side of the lot.
