Summer Fun at Blackberry Mountain

Summer Fun at Blackberry Mountain

Waking up to a quiet morning filled with sunshine and a mountain view as far as the eye can see is only the beginning of what awaits during a day of Summer play at Blackberry Mountain.

Start your morning off right by lacing up your hiking boots and joining the hike to breakfast. Our guided morning hike takes you on the scenic route to the most important meal of the day, offering engaging conversation with your adventure guide, beautiful morning bird songs from our wild neighbors and comforting shade from the canopy. It’s a morning workout complete with a gorgeous view.

After enjoying breakfast at Three Sisters, take a ride down to the Valley. Here, you can settle in to soak up some sun, or set off on a walk down the Double Branch Nature trail. If you’re really looking to get your heartrate up, pick up the pace with a trail run, clip in for a mountain bike ride or get up into the canopy and test your skills on Arbor Adventure.

Feeling creatively inspired? You can even combine time outdoors with art by participating in trailside sketching or watercolor painting with our Art team. The incredible natural setting at Blackberry Mountain provides the perfect backdrop for engaging with your inner artist. There is no experience or artistic ability required.

By now, it’s time to cool down from the Summer heat with a dip in the pool, at the Valley or the Lodge. But swimming’s not the only way to enjoy the water! Slip down the Valley water slides, or grab a paddle to explore the pond in a kayak or canoe.

After a day of non-stop fun, it’s time to relax and refuel. End your day with your choice of dinner from Three Sisters or the Firetower, both offering unique culinary experiences and epic mountain views.

Whether the journey you take brings you into the trees to explore the canopy, pedaling down a bike trail, expressing your energy on the canvas, or splashing down the water slide, Blackberry Mountain invites you to play the day away exactly how you like.
