Some of the best climbing and hiking Western NC has to offer. There's plenty of info online, but feel free to ask us for deets :)
A walk from our house, this is our favorite brewery in West Asheville!
Has a great dog park and paved trails
Lots of space, parking, and outdoor seating. Great beer and on the river.
Lots of places to pull over and enjoy the sites. Several trails right off the parkway.
Waterfalls, panoramic views from the balds, deep forest...this area has it all. Another place we'd be happy to provide info for!
Another favorite brewery. On the edge of South Slope, walkable to several other breweries and restaurants.
Tons of great mountain biking and running trails!
Great for walking around with a coffee. There are lots of art galleries, local shops, and great places to eat and drink over here. There's also a newly paved walking path along the river.
Lots of space for kids and dogs. Right on the French Broad River!
Highest point east of the Mississippi! You can essentially drive up to the top if you want, but there are a number of nice hikes that depart from various points along the road up.
Get your tickets early if you want to tour inside the estate!
Yummy coffee and a flower bar. Dog friendly!
