For a great family day trip, travel to Blue Ridge, and hop aboard the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway for a 4-hour ride through history. This train ride will take you from Blue Ridge to Copperhill/McCaysville, where you'll stop for a layover, with enough time to eat lunch, shop or just enjoy the view. Once you're back on the train, you'll return to Blue Ridge. This is a trip you won't want to miss! If you can stay overnight, there’s plenty to do and see in this little town – even if your ideal Blue Ridge getaway includes relaxing and enjoying mountain hospitality.
