Hi, I’m local explorer Matt Bateman, and I have lived on the Quieter Side of the Smokies, in and around the mountains of Western North Carolina, for decades, and I want to provide you with unique advice and insights to make your trip planning a breeze.
In this blog, you’ll learn about all of the nooks and crannies that western North Carolina has to offer.  From remote hiking trails and waterfalls, to the most popular events and festivals, I’m here to help.
Please feel free to connect with me & my StayPlaySmokies brand anytime:
