I love all the local artists. The studios are great fun to tour. A perfect rainy (or nice day) activity! There are breweries, wineries, coffee shops, great restaurants and of course lots of local art galleries.

One of my favorite places to go for a hike! It’s absolutely beautiful! The Appalachian Trail is the longest hiking footpath in the world. You can choose to do a short hike or an extensive hike. Either way it’s a nice way to spend the day! Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy!

We love Linville Falls! It is a relatively easy hike from the parking lot to the overlooks- about 1/2 mile each way. Make sure you take in the view from all 3 of the overlook locations. There are signs that clearly mark the way and it is well worth the short hike. Bring a picnic lunch!

Located in Yancey County 30 miles northeast of Asheville, Mount Mitchell State Park was the genesis of North Carolina's state parks system. At 6,684 feet, the mountain is the highest point east of the Mississippi River, and an observation deck provides breathtaking mountain views on a clear day. Easy trails at the summit explore the Fraser fir forest, while a vast network of challenging trails — including the Mountains-to-Sea State Trail — extend into adjacent wilderness areas and lead to backpacking opportunities within Pisgah National Forest.

A family owned and operated vineyard and winery in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Linville Falls is a small ...but enjoyable! Bring a picnic lunch or get something from one of their food trucks. (On the weekends they often have music)

Thee best ceramics and jewelry galleries around. Representing artists from coast to coast. A great selection and variety of contemporary clay artists - both functional and sculptural - as well as jewelry in a wide variety of materials and styles. A definite destination for art lovers (and soon to be art lovers).
