Welcome to my blog Charlotte lovers! I will be posting different events and fun things to do in and around the Queen City. If you are a resident or a visitor, no matter what the case, Charlotte always has somewhere fun to be!
My absolute favorite spot in Charlotte is the Whitewater Center. The whitewater center is an outdoor recreational center located about 25 minutes from uptown Charlotte. They have tons to offer such as:
whitewater rafting
whitewater kayaking
ropes courses
rock climbing
zip lines
mountain biking
hiking
flat water kayaking
flat water stand up paddleboard
canopy tours
My husband and I have season passes and season parking passes. We are out there almost every weekend. Not only is there tons to do but it is a great way to get outside and get some exercise. I think a lot of people in the Charlotte area take the whitewater center for granted. People travel from around the country and even the world to come here. It is an Olympic athlete training site for whitewater kayaking. Not only is it meant for recreational purposes, but they have a ton of festivals and concerts. Basically they always have some kind of event going on whether it is for social, a marathon, dining, or holiday. We take our GoPro when we go whitewater rafting and love to check out the footage later. It is open 365 days a year but especially fun during the summer. If you are in the Charlotte area you have to go for a day to check it out!
This is such a great post for those whom don't live near there, such as myself. I want to move to charlotte once I'm out of school and this just makes the idea of living there more compelling thank you!
