Overview

Gigi loves to climb trees, but safety is always our first concern. We stick to the smaller trees, but not too small that we could damage them. We always want to be careful not to be destructive in any way toward nature.

We are planning a few trips to treetop adventure parks, so stay tuned so you can join in on the fun!

Waterfalls

There are so many beautiful waterfalls in the mountains of Western North Carolina! Me and Dad love having waterfall adventures here:
  1. Hooker Falls - this has been our go-to waterfall for many years. A short hike and lot of fun. There is also a place where you can go behind the waterfall and a place where you can jump off of the waterfall, but not recommended.
  2. Looking Glass Falls - easy to get to and a great swimming hole. See our video there.
  3. Triple Falls - no swimming, but a great place to hike, and plus you can see where a part of the Hunger Games was filmed.
  4. Catawba Falls - a nice hike that is over a mile with so many small waterfalls on the way. See our hiking video to the falls.

Cycling

There are many great places to go cycling in the mountains of Western North Carolina! We love biking around the mountains. Here are some great spots;
  1. Lake Powhatan - this lake is surrounded by a biking trail but part of it is through the woods so you need to walk it first to get familiar with the terrain. There are also many other dirt trails going up in the woods, but requires more experience.
  2. Carrier Park - this is a great place to bike around the track and it also connect to the greenway!
  3. Bent Creek - there are many biking trails along this creek, but always be careful and wear your safety gear.
  4. Asheville Greenways - make sure you check out more options on the City of Asheville website!
