And North Carolina’s top natural wonder is ... the Blue Ridge Parkway.

That’s the result of a contest sponsored by Land for Tomorrow, an environmental coalition that works to preserve the state’s land and water resources. The coalition asked voters to nominate any landscape, natural feature, wildlife or plant life that’s unique to North Carolina and should be counted as one of the state’s top natural wonders.

The others on the list are: Cape Hatteras and Cape Lookout; Grandfather Mountain; the Great Smoky Mountains; Lake Mattamuskeet; the Lumber River; Merchants Millpond State Park; the Mountains to Sea Trail; the New River; and Ocracoke Island.

Land for Tomorrow received 200 unique nominations among 1,300 offered. A panel narrowed those 200 to 25, and voters determined the final 10
