15 days in Asheville Itinerary

Asheville nestles between two major mountain ranges in the scenic western section of North Carolina.

Explore hidden gems such as Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail and Mountain Valley Winery. Venture out of the city with trips to Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Chimneys Picnic Area, Noah Bud Ogle Cabin, &more), Gatlinburg (Gatlinburg Scenic Overlook, Doc Collier Distillery, &more) and Hendersonville (Elijah Mountain Gem Mine & Saint Paul Mountain Vineyards). Make the 7th (Mon) an awe-inspiring day at Pisgah National Forest. There's still lots to do: admire the natural beauty at Craggy Gardens, indulge your thirst for a good beer at New Belgium Brewing Company, take in the local highlights with BREW-ed, and relax and rejuvenate at some of the best spas.
