Whether you’re a visitor or a local looking for something different, let North Carolina Off the Beaten Path show you the Tar Heel State you never knew existed. Try the traditional oyster roast at Coleman’s in Calabash; explore Reed Gold Mine, home of the first authenticated gold find in the United States; or walk across the Mile-High Swinging Bridge—if you dare! So even if you’ve "been there, done that" one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Very Informative,
This review is from: North Carolina Off the Beaten Path, 7th (Off the Beaten Path Series) (Paperback)
This was a very informative book. I gave this to my friend for his birthday. We sat down with our other friend and planned out places to go. It was very informative about the places and even listed the town I live in.I recommend it to anyone who likes day trips or learning about different places.
