Western North Carolina-Falling Waters Adventure Resort and Nantahala Gorge Canopy Tours are turning lemons into lemonade. The rock slide on I-40 could be a boon for some travelers, if you plan your route strategically. For travelers heading to destinations west of Knoxville, like Chattanooga and Nashville, taking the detour south along Hwy 74 can be a cost saver.
Falling Waters, located in the Nantahala Gorge area of western North Carolina, is offering a Detour Discount. Save 20% on a night's stay at Falling Waters Adventure Resort or take a zip through the trees with the Nantahala Gorge Canopy Tours or do both. Falling Waters was only one of two North Carolina accommodations selected to the National Geographic 2009 "Stay List" and was selected for its unique, one-of-a-kind experience.
The Yurt Village offers all the amenities of home but gives you a taste of the outdoors. The Yurts are appointed with queen-sized beds, all linens, a CD player, small refrigerators, coffee-makers, and use of the resort's Hot Tub. Bathrooms are private but shared. There are fire rings, hammocks, and hiking trails all on 22 acres. Also located at the Resort is the Nantahala Gorge Canopy Tours.
The Canopy Tour takes you over and through the tree tops of the resort, flying over 1/2 mile from ridge to ridge and then into the trees of the hardwood forest. This two-hour flight is the only one of its kind in western North Carolina and is something not to be missed. Flyers who are 70 lbs to 250 lbs can experience this thrilling activity. All flyers should be able to raise their arms over their heads. Recommended clothing includes closed-toed shoes, a collared shirt and long pants.
