Things to Do in Asheville
Blue Ridge Parkway
Drive the Blue Ridge Parkway, enjoy overlooks and trails along the way!
Looking Glass Rock
The overlook is stunning, the hike is fantastic!
Craggy Gardens Visitor Center
Short 1.4 there and back hike with a great view...from the parking lot.
Hard Times Trailhead
Need help picking a route? Give us a shout
Western North Carolina Nature Center
The Nature Center is a lot like a miniature zoo that features some of WNCs native wildlife (and also red pandas!?)
South Slope Brewing District
Check out Burial, Greenman, Catawba, HiWire, and more!
Biscuit Head
Best breakfast in town. Be ready for a line.
Mela Indian Restaurant
Colleen and Brian's favorite date spot
White Duck Taco Shop
There are many locations for White Duck taco, but this is the BEST one. Enjoy some amazing variations of tacos (we recommend Chicken Tikka Masala and the Korean pork) and a little sunshine by the river.
French Broad Chocolate Lounge
Classy chocolate, coffee, and gelato in the heart of downtown.
Wagbar
Love dogs? Pet a few and drink some pints! You do not need to bring a dog to enter. All members of your party must be 21+
Pack Square Park
The heart of downtown. This is a great place to start moving through the downtown area, and is especially fun when the water works are on, or there's an event/concert.
River Arts District
Start at 12 bones, summit coffee, or the wedge! Tour all the art and craft galleries!
The Odd
The Odd is an LGBT and ally oriented space that hosts drag shows, emo dance parties, and other "alternative" events. It's a really awesome spot for folks with an open mind.
