Learn about pollinator conservation on a family-friendly no-drop group ride along the Asheville Butterfly Trail.

The Asheville Butterfly Trail took flight in the summer of 2024, just in time for Hurricane Helene to test its wings! Five Trail stations have been installed throughout Buncombe County with at least five more planned.

At each of the three stations we visit, we will stop to learn about the butterfly on display and have the opportunity to take photos with the giant wings.

The entire route will be approximately 9.6 miles, all paved surfaces (view the route here!). The longest section between stops will be approximately 3.4 miles. Bring your water, sunscreen, helmet, and a friend! No registration necessary. 

Butterfly Tour Guide

The ride will be lead by Sandy Broadwill, a board member for Bee City Asheville and bicycle adventurer.
