Great Ideas for Daytripping in the Coolest Corner of NC

Ashe County, in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, is the perfect day trip destination! With various fun and family-friendly activities, you can experience the highlights of the High Country in a short time.
Take a hike to the top of Mount Jefferson for stunning long-range views, or visit New River State Park to canoe or float the world’s second-oldest river. If you prefer to cast a line, try your hand at fishing in our Mountain Heritage Trout Waters. Jam to live music at one of many local events, and enjoy public art in each of our unique downtown areas. How many murals can you find? Savor a delicious meal and find refreshment at our local wineries, cidery, and breweries.
Be sure to shop before you leave town! Our array of small businesses offer fresh fashion styles, one-of-a-kind antiques, and specialty foods-including Ashe County Cheese from North Carolina’s oldest cheese plant. Enjoy mountain fresh farmers market produce and, during the holiday season, take home your perfect Christmas tree from one of our choose-and-cut farms. Spend a day discovering the best of Ashe County, and you will see what makes it “the coolest corner of North Carolina!”
