Pilgrim's Rest is an alluring small town that was declared a national monument for its rich history, fascinating nature such as gold and beautiful mountains surrounding, and before you reach Pilgrims there's a natural bridge, yes! Natural bridge that's stronger and safer than the man-made bridge.

You don't have to be a spiritual being to feel some sense of reverence and respect for the late stalwart.
