Driving the Blue Ridge Highway in a Class C?
Hi all: We are planning a drive from Maine to Florida in late June, which we have done a couple times but always take the shortest I95 route. This time I am considering taking 3 or 4 days to get fro...

I drove the Blue Ridge Parkway in my 31' Class C about 2 or 3 years ago. Got on at the very first entrance of Skyline Drive, got off at the very last exit of the Blueridge Parkway. Drove every inch of it. Yes, you can do it in a Class C. Some of the overpasses will need to be driven in the middle of the road. Fortunately, there is not a lot of traffic so you can do that without too much trouble.
How much time you need will depend on how long you tarry and sightsee along the way. We took 2 weeks but spent 2 or 3 nights at each stop. That was our vacation. It was not a route TO our vacation.
Getting on and off is not difficult, but the entrances/exits are spaced rather far apart. You may have to drive a bit to get to one if you want to get off.
Be sure to research which campgrounds are open. Several were closed when we did it.
