Overview

Just east of Asheville is the spectacular Catawba Falls, situated at the headwaters of the Catawba River. This hike starts on a wide, well-graded trail along the Catawba River to Lower Catawba Falls. You'll climb the observation tower (580 stairs in total!) to see a spectacular east-facing view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Then continue to Upper Catawba Falls, which was off limits to hikers until 2024. This hike is about 3.5 miles return, overall moderate (but not technical). It's a great way to see both sweeping mountain views and waterfalls… it's a beautiful hike year round!

Our small group hike (limited to 6 participants) meets at 8:30 a.m. in city centre Asheville. You will meet your hiking guide and receive a rundown of the itinerary. Snacks and transport are included.

Hikers should arrive prepared for all weather conditions and pack a rain jacket, an extra warm layer, and water. Your guide can provide trekking poles, a daypack, and/or bottled water (upon request).
