Museums

Check out Pack Place Education, Arts and Science Center in downtown Asheville. The Health Adventure, a children's science and discovery center, challenges guests with fun, interactive exhibits, and unique traveling exhibits, including the Magic School Bus in 2007.

The Colburn Earth Science Museum keeps young minds engaged and little hands busy. Expose your child to the fascinating world of minerals, gems and geology, and enjoy hands-on exhibits such as Weather, Climate, and You!

Children get up close and personal with the inhabitants of WNC Nature Center. Snakes, otters, wolves, bears and mountain lions call this preserve home and at the hands-on Nature Lab kids can pet a snake or hold a turtle. Visit the Cradle of Forestry's Forest Discovery Center where kids can crawl through an "underground tunnel" and take a simulated helicopter ride to put out a forest fire.
