Mountain City to see tourism benefit from Hi-Lo Adventure Trail

The town of Mountain City has been included in a two-state adventure trail promoting dining, shopping, hiking, fishing, boating, exploring, and sightseeing in Tennessee and North Carolina. The Hi-Lo Adventure Trail is a driving trail stretching between Watauga and Avery counties in North Carolina and Johnson and Carter counties in Tennessee. Mountain City is part of the 85-mile Tasters Loop, 100-mile Mountain 2 Mountain Loop, and the 105-mile Lakeside Loop, each of which offers visitors to the trail routes to engage their interests in the region. The Hi-Lo Adventure Trail site helps guide visitors to where to stay, eat, visit, and explore in the surrounding area. Officials with Mountain City said they are excited for the economic potential of the new tourism trail.
