Hiking
At 2,192 feet, Roanoke Mountain is not the tallest mountain near the city, but it is one of the most popular due to the short hike required to reach the top. There are a few views on the way up and an okay view from the summit, but this isn't the most "open" mountain top. That being said, it is worth tagging the peak if you are driving along the Blue Ridge Parkway.
