Saluda NC has been a popular getaway destination and gateway to the NC mountains since 1879 when the first passenger rode the up the Saluda Grade on the newly completed railroad line. 

If you need an escape from the heat or a respite from the hectic pace of life, Saluda NC is the answer. Loaded with tranquil, scenic beauty and fresh mountain air Saluda is one of Western North Carolina's hidden jewels.

Any visit to Saluda should include a stop by Random Arts for art supplies or artful women's wear, a browse through Heartwood Gallery for local and other American made art and crafts, a hike to Pearson's Falls to enjoy a pristine forest and natural water feature, and dinner (maybe with live music) at The Purple Onion. The historic downtown Main Street meanders along the old Saluda Grade railroad tracks and offers a variety of specialty shops. And don't forget to stop by WildFlour Bakery - probably THE best bakery on the planet - and stock up on their wonderful breads.
