New State Highway Shortcut Improves Asheville to Chimney Rock Route
State highway 20 now uses a newly surfaced shortcut from Asheville to Chimney Rock, trimming mileage from Charlotte and Asheville. After two years of work through Hickory Nut Gap, traffic previously routed via Hendersonville over forty miles. The scenic, wide-curved mountain road features granite removal, overlooks Hickory Nut Gap and Gorge, Hickory Nut Falls, and Chimney Rock with a planned Lake Love dam further along the route.
