Things To Do
Brewery Hopping!
Asheville is home to an amazing selection of craft breweries. The South Slope will be your best bet for hopping from brewery to brewery, but there are a few gems outside of downtown as well. Here are a few favs: Burial Beer Co. https://burialbeer.com/pages/asheville-south-slope New Belgium Brewing https://www.newbelgium.com/visit/asheville/ Wicked Weed https://www.wickedweedbrewing.com/ Zillicoah (a bit further out of town, but a gem) https://www.zillicoahbeer.com/
Hiking/Outdoors
Asheville is located amongst the Blue Ridge Mountains and has some wonderful hiking opportunities within driving distance if you are spending a couple of extra days in the area. Some personal favorites of Monica's are Crabtree Falls and the Craggy Gardens.
Feeling fancy?
The Biltmore Estate/Winery and the Omni Grove Park Inn both offer beautiful historic estates with some gorgeous mountain views. Schedule a tour of the Biltmore, spend some time at the Biltmore Winery, or make a reservation for drinks on the Grove Park Inn terrace if you're up for a something a bit nicer than hiking through the woods.
