Electrifying the Blue Ridge Parkway

Five new Rivian Adventure Network charging sites are now open along the iconic Blue Ridge Parkway, a scenic 469-mile drive through the central and southern Appalachian Mountains.

The Blue Ridge Parkway is the most-visited National Park site in the country, with over 15 million visitors in 2022, according to the National Park Service. These new fast chargers along the route enable Rivian drivers to experience one of America’s seminal road trips with range confidence.

Our charging locations along the Blue Ridge Parkway feature DC fast chargers that can add up to 140 miles of range in 20 minutes. They also include pull-through spots for vehicles towing trailers. We choose Adventure Network locations for their proximity to amenities including food, restrooms and areas to stretch your legs.
