The Pisgah, Grandfather, and Appalachian Ranger Districts are located along the eastern edge of western North Carolina's mountains, offering tourists a variety of outdoor recreational opportunities as well as the ability to admire the natural beauty of the mountains.

The National Forest Foundation (NFF) named the Pisgah National Forest as a Treasured Landscape in 2017 as part of its national Treasured Landscapes, Unforgettable Experiences conservation initiative.
