Neighborhoods
Check out River Arts District. Go to the Marquee to see all of Asheville’s artist in one spot. It’s an incredible space that just opened. So fun to walk around. It’s connected with the greenway so you can walk to Hi-Wire Brewing’s new location which is awesome or grab a coffee or wine at Pleb Winery. It’s a great place to walk around or rent electric bikes.

Downtown

An afternoon on South Slope is fun. So many breweries in this one area of downtown. Recommendation: Uber home. There’s Advil in the bathroom vanity.
(It’s close to Sauna House so you could have a relaxing morning there and finish the day on South Slope)
