Barley's has been a pillar of downtown Asheville since an era when not much else existed downtown. Original home of our town's oldest brewery, Highland, Barley's has always been host to warm food, local music, and signature celtic brews. The food is great and there are dozens of regional beers on tap. Every THURSDAY night Barley's is home to the Asheville jazz monument, Alien Music Club, founded by JP Perlman, author of Iconoclasm. Every Thursday you can find Asheville's finest jazz musicians gathering from 8pm to midnight. The 2nd set is open to the public for performing. Sign up during the 1st set with a song title and key.

Parks & Nature

Beaver Lake is home to one of my favorite spots, the little known Asheville Bird Sanctuary, managed by students from UNCA. With a boardwalk that guides you through the swamps by the lake to a lake shore path, a picnic lunch is pure heaven. This is more of a walking path than a hiking trail. For that, hit the Blue Ridge Parkway. My favorite spot is North to marker 419. Both are free!

Not a park, but a place to park and ride the river. Begin on Riverside or at the Brevard Road location and Zen will bus you and your tube or board up the river to enjoy the day in the sun, cruising the old French Broad.
