Trade and Lore

We spent one night in Asheville in the middle of a snowy January— the Blue Ridge Parkway was closed so we decided to walk it!

Welcome to my completely unorganized but oh-so-helpful map of Asheville and Black Mountain! An absolute smorgasbord of my own travels and research, suggestions from friends and strangers, and many treasures found along the way, this is where I compile all things Asheville for my future trips and yours. Things I particularly love that you’ll find a lot of: ☕️ Coffee shops & bakeries 🌮 Local cuisine 🏛️ Museums of all kinds 🌳 Gardens & parks 🛏️ Boutique hotels 🍕 Small regional chains with good reputations All my guides in this category are $5 per 100 places included, but since I add to these constantly, you can lock down the lowest price today and gain a lifetime access!
