    The Deerlick Gap Overlook is located at Milepost 337.2 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. It boasts views of the Catawba Valley and lower-lying foothills. It gets its name from the deer that travel here to lick the rocks that have a salty, bitter coating. There are a couple picnic tables at this pull-off as well.
