A MUST SEE - You may also see some great Street Performers. There are four statues standing at the corner of Queen City - Trade and Tryon Streets. The historic figures of commerce industry and transportation represent enterprises which have contributed to Charlotte's growth as a major commercial center. While honoring Charlotte's past, the three figures all look toward the fourth figure, the future," a bronzed description embedded in the sidewalk's brick says.

This park has several different trails - I listed a couple of them. The Four Seasons trail heads out of the Meadows area through deciduous forest and connects with the Hickory Nut Falls trail. This .6-mile moderate-to-strenuous trail climbs nearly 400 feet and provides you access to the top of the mountain year-round without driving. The Hickory Nut Falls trail takes you out to a platform at the bottom of a 404-foot waterfall, the second highest of its kind east of the Mississippi River and a backdrop for several scenes in the movie The Last of the Mohicans. It’s a cool, refreshing stop and a “must see” during your visit to Chimney Rock.
