If area creeks, rivers, and swimming holes aren’t your thing, and waterparks are too far or too costly for your budget, Asheville has several outdoor swimming pools within a reasonable driving distance to escape to during the heatwave, and all summer long! Check them all out at the link above (in order of distance from AVL)!

🚘 We’ve tried to keep our list to those under 1 hour away, but if we’re missing one of your favorites, that you feel is worth the gas and distance, let us know, and we’ll add it!
