Come grow in faith during the most beautiful time of year in the High Country! Daily hikes of varying abilities will be offered by Holy Hikes of WNC as well as morning and evening talks this year's speaker, the Rev. Dr. Timothy Ross. Tim Ross--a pastor, professor, missionary, spouse, dad, citizen of the Western Cherokee Nation who lives in Johnson City--will share on the intersection of Christian spirituality and Native wisdom and spirituality.
Accommodations are in the Inn, with limited single rooms available. Hiking excursions are tailored to different experience and skill levels, and all are welcome. Non-hikers who may enjoy fly fishing, biking, or exploring the mountains by car during the day are also welcome to attend.
