Directions
We recommend NOT taking the National Forest Winding Stairs rd to get there - it's a one lane steep gravel rd. Instead, continue a little further on 74 and turn left onto Wayah Rd. Then left onto rd 1412 and past the Nantahala high school, this will then turn back into Winding Stairs rd and bring you to the Mystic Ridge gate.
