              Summer has arrived in the High Country.

       Celebrate the simpler things in life.

The Linville Gorge and Whitewater rafting are great escapes from the heat and fun ways to enjoy time with family and friends in Avery County. Enjoy a relaxing time at our many antique shops, art galleries and museums in search of your family roots or unique finds. Visit the storied peaks of Grandfather Mountain. View the majestic vistas from Sugar Mountain, Seven Devils, and Beech Mountain – known as some of the High South’s most popular playgrounds! Stop by Banner Elk, the quaint one red light town and home of the World Famous Woolly Worm Festival, and Art Festivals. Visit our wineries and the many shops along the way, hike the Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Gorge and Elk River Falls.

With the highest county seat in North Carolina (Newland,elv. 3,589 ft.) and the highest incorporated town east of the Rockies (Beech Mountain, elv. 5,506 ft.), Avery County is the place to come to clear your head, connect with family and friends and get above the rush of daily life.
