About the North Carolina - Western Mountains
 Western North Carolina's Great Smoky Mountains are a grand and glorious place to explore. Plan a getaway to a serene spa or country inn. Whitewater rafting runs the range from serene to heart-stopping; biking and hiking trails prove that enchanted forests don’t just exist in fairy tales. Golf holes beckon with vertical drops off the tee of up to 400 feet.
Ridge upon ridge of endless forest straddles the border between North Carolina and Tennessee in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. World renowned for the diversity of its plant and animal life, the beauty of its ancient mountains, and the quality of its remnants of Southern Appalachian mountain culture, this is America’s most visited national park. Small towns, historic sites, fine art and craft, scenic vistas, and friendly people make Western North Carolina a place you will want to visit time and time again. 'Wilderness is necessity' by John Muir, Founder of the Sierra Club. |
