North Carolina Piedmont, NC Piedmont, Central NC, NC Heartland: Paddling a Sea of Tranquility: Kayaking Piedmont Lakes

The North Carolina Piedmont is always a hot spot for visitors. Winter or summer, our attractions really sizzle.

To begin with, there’s more great golf here than you can shake an oversized driver at. There are also fascinating wine tours to take, miles of hiking and biking trails to explore, mammoth largemouth bass waiting to be hooked, minor league baseball games to take in and much more.

Shop till you drop at upscale malls, sip a cold draft beer at one of our microbreweries or experience New South cuisine at a hot new restaurant. Then dance the night away at some of America’s coolest nightclubs.

Find endless fun for your next getaway in the North Carolina Piedmont.
