10 TOP Things to Do in Western Piedmont February 2026

Beautiful, quiet and huge park in Concord, NC

Just completed and opened to the public, this long-closed granite quarry that over years filled with rainwater is now Winston-Salem's newest park. The city skyline is visible in the distance.

Attended a company picnic here. You can rent the venue for weddings & parties as well. You can canoe, rock climb or just sit under the shelter & enjoy the fans. Great for all ages.

The hike up to Kings Pinnacle is pretty easy (minus the very end), but the views are the kind you'd expect from a much tougher hike. A quick detour on a #roadtrip home from Thanksgiving in South Carolina led us here!
