Passholders can bring guests onto the property at 3:00 during Passholder Appreciation Days. We'll take advantage of this so those who don't have a Biltmore Annual Pass can join in a walk on the grounds without paying the entrance fee. Friendly dogs are very welcome on-leash.

Let's all meet at the Ticket Center - 128 Approach Rd, Biltmore Forest, NC 28803 at 2:50 pm on Thursday, February 19th. Go through the initial gate and the Ticket Center will be on a hill on the left just before the ticket checking station. Just go up to the left and travel through that parking lot and look for the RFAR sign. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PASS AND WANT TO JOIN PLEASE POST A COMMENT SO WE KNOW WHO TO LOOK FOR AT THE TICKET CENTER. There are restrooms at the Ticket Center. We'll get non-passholders into a car with a passholder so we can all get in without paying the entrance fee. We will use this same system to get folks to the music fun this summer so let's make the system work!

We'll drive over to the Lagoon and park the cars. We'll do the Deer Park Trail uphill to the Biltmore House. We'll have two options:

  1. Those who want to do extra distance can go with the group down to the Bass Pond and Waterfall. Then we'll go up through the Azalea Gardens to the Conservatory.
  2. Those who are happy with about 2.5 miles total can continue up the hill to the Biltmore House and then down through the formal gardens to the Conservatory.

We will all meet up at the Conservatory and then return down the hill on the Deer Park Trail to the cars as one group. We'll get folks back to their cars at the Ticket Center shortly after 5pm. We're expecting fabulous weather so let's go out and enjoy Thursday afternoon at Biltmore!

Please post cancellations on Meetup so we aren't looking for you if you decided not to join. Thanks!
