Known as the ‘Paris of the South’, downtown Asheville is an eclectic hub of independent boutiques, farm-to-fork restaurants, craft breweries and art galleries. Follow the 1.7-mile Asheville Urban Trail, discovering 30 pieces of art dotted along the sidewalks that chronicle the city’s past, before browsing over 200 locally-owned shops or heading to a fun-filled festival in Pack Square Park. Quirky city-centre hotspots include a board game café and a ‘pubcycle’ pedal-powered mobile bar.
Asheville’s most famous landmark is the Biltmore Estate, a celebrated historic home that dates back to the late 1800s. It was built by George Vanderbilt, whose family’s railroading empire made them America’s wealthiest dynasty and icons of the Gilded Age. Set in 8,000 acres, the country’s largest privately owned house is a magnificent Châteauesque-style mansion covering 175,000 square feet, with lavish interiors including 33 bedrooms, 43 bathrooms and 65 fireplaces. Visitors can go horseriding or cycling through the beautiful grounds and enjoy tastings at the estate’s private winery.
Discover Asheville’s long love affair with the arts, visiting the childhood home of literary great Thomas Wolfe and admiring art-deco architecture such as the imposing Basilica of St Lawrence. Today the city continues to brim with creativity – watch a play at one of the many theatres, browse artists’ studios housed in converted warehouses in the River Arts District and tap your feet to old-time mountain beats in one of the many live-music venues, including iconic club The Orange Peel. For a more highbrow musical experience, book tickets to the opera or a classical music performance.
Venture beyond Asheville’s city centre to discover the breathtaking natural beauty of Blue Ridge Mountains; a playground for outdoor adventure that’s renowned for its spectacular views. Cruise along the famous Blue Ridge Parkway, which weaves around the mountain peaks for over 450 miles; or hike through woods scattered with white-water rivers and thundering waterfalls in Pisgah National Forest. Pack your binoculars and look out for bird species including the elusive peregrine falcon. You might also be lucky enough to spot a herd of elk or a bear from afar! Thrill-seekers can scale the 6,000-foot peak of Mount Mitchell, zip-line high above the forest canopy or whiz down Sliding Rock, a 60-foot natural waterslide.
