Manage episode 354845158 series 3433814
On this episode we’re going to be talking about Pine Grove Furnace State Park. Nestled in the northern tip of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Pine Grove Furnace combines a beautiful outdoor setting with fascinating history.
Pine Grove Furnace has a lot to offer visitors. Amazing events, trails, two swimming lakes, historical reenactments, a museum and even the Appalachian Trail.
I interview Andre Weltman, who is the chairman of the Friends of Pine Grove Furnace State Park. He has an absolute wealth of knowledge about the park. Andre goes through the history of the park, suggests activities and everything the park has to offer.
