Optional Events Description

Guided Waterfall Hike The Falls at Dupont State Forest - Located between the charming towns of Hendersonville and Brevard – the 10,000 acre Dupont State Forest is home to over 90 miles of trails leading adventurous hikers to beautiful waterfalls, tranquil mountain lakes, and beside rushing streams. On this moderate hike your friendly guides will take you to three of these splendid waterfalls (High Falls, Triple Falls and Hooker Falls). Several of the waterfalls you will see were filmed in the movie Last of the Mohicans. The Hunger Games was also filed in the Dupont State Forest. Make sure to bring your camera because this place is truly a photographer’s dream! Also, please wear appropriate shoes for light hiking. Whitewater Rafting Beautiful scenery, playful rapids. One of the world’s oldest rivers, the French Broad River winds through the Pisgah National Forest in the mountains of North Carolina. The whitewater section, located near Walnut, North Carolina, is convenient to Asheville, as well as Hot Springs, a charming mountain town. Class I-III French Broad rafting offers groups a perfect introduction to whitewater. For each person a personal flotation device, helmet, paddle will be provided, and each raft will have a professional guide. Please wear bathing suits (or shorts and tee-shirt) and secure footwear (sandals are not appropriate). Optional: sunscreen, sunglasses and glasses strap. For after your trip: change of clothes, dry shoes and towel. Children must be eight years old to participate in the raft trip.
