Travelers Rest, SC

Travelers Rest, known simply as TR, is a foothills trail town nine miles north of downtown Greenville, South Carolina. The Swamp Rabbit Trail runs right beside Main Street, Furman University sits inside the city limits, and on Saturday evenings from spring through fall the lawn at Trailblazer Park fills up for free concerts. Crepes to start the day, a James Beard-nominated kitchen to end it, and waterfalls less than half an hour away. Bring a bike. You will use it.
