4 days in Asheville Itinerary

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

Change things up with these side-trips from Asheville: Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies (in Gatlinburg) and River Rafting & Tubing (in Hartford). There's much more to do: contemplate the long history of Biltmore, gain interesting insight with Asheville Rooftop Bar Tours, shop like a local with New Morning Gallery, and look for all kinds of wild species at Blue Ridge Hiking Company.

For reviews, maps, photos, and tourist information, go to the Asheville trip planner.
