Parking at the Interpretive Center is very limited and reserved for the handicap and those with a true need to park near the building due to limitations.

Thank you and we hope to see you on the mountain!

***************
The Friends of High Point State Park invite you to join them this summer for three magical evenings of music in the park. Bring your family and friends up the mountain for a day of fun, then stay for a fabulous concert on the beach at Lake Marcia. Spread a blanket out on the grass and enjoy a picnic supper. Dance barefooted in the sand. Summer nights were made for music under the setting sun!
