Between the trees and the French Broad River is an easy, relaxing trail. Take your time on the River Trail and observe the nature around you. When staying at Deerwoode, allow yourself to slow down and appreciate the beauty of the mountains.
Start the trail behind River Cabin or by the bamboo forest! It connects to other paths taking you through trees and bamboo to make it a longer walk.
