For over 70 years, Mystery Hill is the place to go for family fun in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Are you craving an escape to the Blue Ridge Mountains? Come visit Mystery Hill, located just outside of Boone, North Carolina! We have the perfect blend of indoor/outdoor fun for the whole family, and for more than 70 years, we’ve maintained exhibits and experiences that feature Appalachian culture and history.

Located in the Mystery House, our gravity vortex is what brings over 70,000 visitors from throughout the world to our location every year! This vortex causes all sorts of amazing gravitational anomalies – despite your best efforts to stay standing completely upright, your body will be forced into a 45-degree angle. Water will also flow uphill and balls will roll upward right before your eyes!

While our gravity vortex is what gets people to Mystery Hill, our full lineup of indoor and outdoor attractions is what keeps people coming back. Spend time outdoors wading, fishing, or tubing in the second-oldest river in the world. Or, get your adrenaline pumping during a tomahawk throwing session, capture your amazing day by taking some fun photos in our old-fashioned photo parlor, or put a giant bubble around your friends at Bubblerama!

Your experience at Mystery Hill will be unlike any other you’ve had before! Buy your tickets today and get ready to learn, play, enjoy beautiful mountain weather, and so much more.
