Around Town

So many fun things to do for fun, hiking, eating, swimming, exploring, volunteering, stargazing, going to the parkway, etc!

Hiking, chilling on the parkway, going to King Street, hanging out on Sanford mall (a huge grassy area where people hang out), skiing/snowboarding, going to the Watauga Humane Society, partying, camping, hundreds of amazing clubs, going to Tweetsie or Mystery Hill, exploring the surrounding adorable mountain towns, taking pictures, sledding and snowball fights, and the possibilities are endless!

Any winter sports.

There are hundreds of clubs you can join and participate in their activities. The student rec center hold outdoor programs where you can go hiking, canoeing, cave diving, and various other adventures. Every week there is a $2 popular film playing on campus, as well as $1 classic movies playing. Once you are 21 there are plenty of places to go drinking.

For fun there is a lot of things to do, most of them outdoors. Hiking, biking, and just enjoying the scenery is great! It's a small town but some of the restaurants are nice and the people are so friendly.

In Boone, nature is your friend. If you want to do something, go for a hike, find a trail and see where it goes, take your friends to places you have never been before; be adventurous and let your inner wild-man guide you. If you let your sense of adventure take you places while you spend time at Appalachian, you will never be unhappy.

There are so many great hiking areas in and around Boone, and the Blue Ridge Parkway is a short drive away. Many students eno and slackline on campus for fun, and we even have a rock-climbing wall in the Student Recreation Center. There are also concerts constantly going on with both famous and lesser know bands and artists at Legends.
