6 days in Asheville Itinerary

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

Get outdoors at Cades Cove and Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail. Popular historic sites such as Biltmore and Basilica of Saint Lawrence are in your itinerary. Explore Asheville's surroundings by going to Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Quiet Walkways, Mount LeConte, &more) and Gatlinburg (Ole Smoky, Sugarlands Distilling Company, &more). There's still lots to do: let your taste buds guide you at a local gastronomic tour, indulge in some personalized pampering at some of the best spas, see what you can catch with a fishing tour, and look for all kinds of wild species at Beaver Lake Bird Sanctuary.
