Outdoor Recreation

With its waterfalls, seasonal color, and magnificently unspoiled national parks, Brevard is a nature-lover’s paradise where even a game of golf can happen in mountain scenery of striking beauty. Western North Carolina is known as an “adventure destination” – an area with a national reputation for the diversity and quality of its outdoor activities. Frequently featured in adventure magazines like Outside and National Geographic Adventure, Western North Carolina is more than just beautiful scenery – it’s also a whole new world of outdoor activity, right in your own back yard.

Not just a playground for athletes and adventure professionals, the area offers recreation and enjoyment for all ages and all fitness levels, from a short hike to Looking Glass Falls, a famously beautiful local waterfall, to a fearless plunge down Sliding Rock, a 60-foot natural waterslide that empties into a deep pool of ice-cold stream water. Ten campgrounds lie within a ten-mile radius, nearly a dozen local lakes offer fishing and boating, protected national parkland beckons for hiking and trail-walking, and in winter, Catoloochee Ski Area is just half an hour away...

Learn what Western North Carolina has to offer nature-lovers with a little help from the thriving local outdoor industry – local companies can provide gear and guidance for trips involving kayaking, hunting, fishing, rock-climbing and dozens of other local activities, from floating down a lazy river to a hiking up a mountain’s sloping side.
