Tips from locals
Great farm to visit with greenhouses, animals, alternative construction and hiking trails right on the Swannanoa river
Historic college with quiet walking trails and nice views. Farm animals too.
Check out the arboretum at Warren Wilson College on the north side of town. Bonsai, trails with labeled native plants, and several original log cabins can be seen here.
Wonderful, beautiful small college. Traditional work-program school since inception in 1894. Location of Swannanoa Gathering and Old Farmer's Ball contradance.
