Brevard is known as the “Land of Waterfalls” and is cherished by its residents for its small-town charm, walkability, picturesque streets, budding craft beer scene, proximity to DuPont State Recreational Forest and Pisgah National Forest, and congenial atmosphere. The Hunger Games was filmed locally just minutes away in DuPont State Recreational Forest, making Brevard a fantastic local jumping board for film enthusiasts who are eager to enter the world of one of the most popular films in the world.

Even for North Carolina natives, Brevard is a hidden gem of the state that perfectly walks the line between authenticity and touristic, making it an often preferable and more relaxing destination to the much busier and fast-paced Asheville.
