Our group recently booked the private half day hike with Blue Ridge Hiking Company and it was a very nice afternoon. One of the highlights for us was the convenience of being driven to the trailheads. This made the whole trip much more relaxing and enjoyable. Our guide Lexie was sweet, accommodating and attentive to our interest. The company also provided a snack which was a nice touch. Overall, I would recommend Blue Ridge Hiking company for a tailored stress free day of hiking.

I was so fortunate to go on a half-day hike with Bev and Melinda. This hike was the absolute highlight of my trip to Asheville! I was traveling solo and I knew that I wanted to see the Blue Ridge Parkway and go hiking. Bev planned the most spectacular hike! She is such an expert in all ways...excellent communication before our hike, picked the perfect hike, is the most amazing guide but more than anything, she is the friendliest and kindest human being and is just so much fun to be around. Having Melinda there was a bonus and she is also an amazing guide and a joy to be with! Bev and Melinda both were so attentive to my needs throughout the whole hike - providing me with polls and snacks and constantly checking-in with me to see how I was doing. This half-day hike FAR exceeded expectations. Both of these women are so inspiring and are a gift to people like me who aren't yet ready to hike alone. Thank you Bev and Melinda for a most memorable day!

We had such an enjoyable day with our hiking guide, Kacie! We were not the easiest to deal with as we had so many questions from the start. Kacie was patient, fun, knowledgeable and shared great information about follow up ways to learn more about the area. We loved our adventure and would recommend this tour to anyone!

We hiked up and across multiple peaks, sat by waterfalls and stood atop the most breathtaking lookouts. We only encountered a single other hiker, so the mountains felt like our private landscape - our guide Paul knew what areas to avoid and kept us informed about the plants, animals and trail conditions. Thank you!

Blue Ridge Hiking was a great experience. Easy to book and very helpful. Value for the cost. My husband and I had a great time. Our guide Jenna picked us up at our AirBnB in downtown. She was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the hike and area. Her snacks were an added bonus with Asheville Pretzels. Jenna made the hike very enjoyable. I would highly recommend to tourists and locals for a beautiful hike to see three amazing water falls. We will be back to Asheville soon to take another Hike with Blue Ridge and Jenna. THANK YOU for a great day! Val and Mike

Bev MacDowell took us on a waterfall viewing hike this morning and it was absolutely fantastic in many many ways! She is a very knowledgeable and kind human that was very attentive the entire time to our hiking needs and she was very well prepared with water, snacks and walking sticks (which we didn’t even know we needed until we did). Bev catered to our every need and we had some wonderful conversations along the trails together. We highly recommend Bev and will be looking her up for our next trip back to Asheville to do more hikes with more family with more Bev! Awesome day !!!

Great hike on the Pink Beds trail in the Pisgah Mountains with our favorite hiking guide Bev MacDowell of Blue Ridge Hiking Company. Nice trail with streams, bridges and diverse habitat. We always use Blue Ridge Hiking for all our guided hikes for our trips to Asheville. Very experienced guides and always pick the best hike for our needs and wants at the time. Highly recommend!
