Sipping Champagne surrounded by hundreds of fine books? Feasting your eyes on spectacular artworks, including some that depict canines? Traipsing along a riverside path landscaped like a long, winding botanical garden? Hiking and driving on stunning mountain routes? Beholding ahhh-inspiring blooms in a marvelous arboretum?

Welcome to Asheville, where you can do all this and more with Fido by your side. Asheville offers a practically all-access pass for your canine connoisseurs to some of the finer things in life. So many places are free-admission that your vacation dollars will stretch further than you can roam. With so many things to love, it’s clear why Asheville is a magnet for people with pups.

Consider yourself warned: you’ll want to snap so many photos that it can help to bring a waist-leash.
