460 drive times, last checked Oct 27, 2026.
Drive time in minutes and road miles from five North Carolina cities (Asheville, Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh and Wilmington) to each state park, event venue and attraction we list that has a map point (two listed places have none and are left out). The basis column says whether a row is a Google Maps time we measured or an estimate from road routing; estimates are labelled and are not live traffic.

- Minutes marked Google Maps are the fastest route Google Maps listed on the date in the method column. Rows marked Estimate come from OpenStreetMap road routing from the start city’s Census point, scaled to the measured Google Maps times; they are not live traffic and can differ from a trip on the day.
- The same numbers drive the drive times trip picker.
