WILDFLOWER WALKS

One of the many reasons we look forward to spring each year in the mountains is the return of wildflowers to our protected lands. Throughout the forests and parks of Transylvania County, you’re likely to encounter a number of different blooms, from Trillium and Pink Lady Slippers to Bloodroot and Violets. Pick up a wildflower guidebook from one of our local outfitters so you can greet them by name!
