Outdoor Recreation!

Many of the outdoor activities in Watauga County North Carolina revolve around the seasons. In the warmer, summer months, activities like golf, horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking and white water rafting are incredibly popular. In the winter time, Watauga County becomes a white wonderland covered with freshly fallen snow, and the High Country NC Ski Resorts become the favorite attraction for skiing, snowboarding, sledding, ice skating and snow tubing. Each ski resort is unique in personality and Hawksnest Resort has now become the largest snowtubing park on the east coast. Hawksnest was once a large ski area, however, this season the resort decided to expand their snow tubing endeavors and end all skiing and snowboarding. Visit all the family friendly High Country ski centers and choose your favorite to return to year after year.
