Don't know how long your trip will be. However to do the entire Blue Ridge Parkway. you will need about a week. It is 469 miles long, and has a lot of 25, and 35 MPH zones, and when not in one of them. the max speed is 45 MPH. There are hundreds of overlooks you are going to want to stop at, including Mt Mitchell. It is the highest peak East of the Mississippi. You will also want to see GrandFather Mountain, and the swinging bridge. Chimney Rock, and Lake Lure are nice as well.
Of course. You can get to those places with out riding the BRP as well.
