Terrapin Mountain not only runs parallel to the overlook on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but it is also very close, traits that make for a boring view unless the leaves on the trees are changing color. The next two overlooks to the south—Thunder Ridge Parking Area and Arnold Valley View—have excellent scenic views, so I suggest stopping at one of them and skipping the Terrapin Mountain View overlook.
