It sure is.  Do you know how far it goes? Or which states it's in?
1_Wizard
yes, as they say it's America's longest linear park, it  runs for through 29 Virginia and North Carolina counties.

Ah!  I think of them as the little mountains as compared to the Rockies.
1_Wizard
yeah,  it would surprise you  to know that it is the  most visited unit of the National Park System every year since 1946

Yes! That is surprising. I didn't know it was a park.

Now you know, the  land on either  side of the road is owned and maintained by the National Park Service
