Things To Do
A Stroll Down Main Street
Main Street is downtown Greenville's walkable thoroughfare, offering dozens of sights, restaurants, and shopping options. If you're feeling adventurous and the weather is nice, start up at North Main near the Hyatt Regency, and walk your way down to the historic West End at the ballfield. Along the way you will find staples like the Mast General Store, Clemson University's MBA school, the Wyche Pavilion behind the Peace Center, our new and improved Camperdown Plaza, the iconic Falls Park (a must see waterfall downtown with a walk across the bridge to the Grand Bohemian!), and so much more. For an added challenge, our main street has a fun scavenger hunt, with 9 hidden bronze mice called "Mice on Main". Visit this website for clues along your walk: https://www.visitgreenvillesc.com/things-to-do/all-things-to-do/mice-on-main/ For those looking for more physical activity - renting a bike, walking, or running the Swamp Rabbit Trail from Falls Park to Cleveland Park is a fun option.
