The centennial celebrations of the National Park Service and the North Carolina State Park System are featured
in the Official 2016 North Carolina Travel Guide, just published by the North Carolina Department of Travel and Tourism.
The 176-page guide comes with a choice of covers:
one featuring Mount Mitchell, the highest point east of
the Rockies or another of hang gliders on Jockey’s Ridge, the East Coast’s tallest natural dune. It directs readers to Project 543, an online collection of postcard-style features on unusual travel finds and helps travelers connect with accommodations and attractions.
The guide is free. The print edition can be ordered at VisitNC.com or calling 800-VISITNC (800-847-4862).
An enhanced digital version can be accessed at VisitNC.com/eguide.
A magazine app available for iOS and Android features exclusive maps, photo galleries, and other elements.
