The beautiful Bartram Trail, with access just a 5 min. walk from the house, is named for naturalist William Bartram who was among the most well-known of the early naturalists, botanists and explorers of his day. For serious hikers, the Trail leads to Wayah Bald, the highest peak in Macon County. It intersects the famous Appalachian Trail which extends over 2,000 miles from Georgia all the way to Maine. Bartram traveled throughout the southeast from 1773 to 1777. The North Carolina Bartram Trail Society was organized to establish and maintain the North Carolina section of the memorial trail that honors Bartram and his work. The 80+ miles of the Bartram Trail in North Carolina follows the original route. The Bartram Trail is designated as a National Recreation Trail by the National Trails System Act of 1968. The trail is blazed in a yellow, vertically oriented rectangle in North Carolina and a yellow diamond in Georgia. It crosses over some of the most scenic mountains of North Carolina and Georgia.
Located in Franklin, this chalet is in a rural area and on the waterfront. Franklin Gem and Mineral Museum and Scottish Tartans Museum are cultural highlights, and travelers looking to shop may want to visit Whistle Stop Mall and Mason Mountain Mine. Traveling with kids?
