Banner Elk is a quaint mountain village between the Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain ski areas (our top North Carolina Ski Town). It's home to Lees-McRae College, a beautiful historic campus at the highest elevation of any college east of the Mississippi (3,700 ft.). Nearby is Grandfather Mountain and the popular Mile High Swinging Bridge. Be sure to have dinner at Stonewalls, personal favorite!
