Guidebook for Charlotte
Entertainment & Activities
If you haven't checked it out then go try it. This place is unbelievable. It cost $6 to park and all of the hiking trails are free. You will have to pay for all other activities (whitewater rafting, paddle boarding, kayaking, zip line, rock climbing, mountain biking), but you can also enjoy the beer garden as you watch the whitewater rafting. There is also live music on Thursday-Sunday during the summer.
