Popular day trips from Tryon

The North Carolina winery with a small (and authentic) Russian Orthodox church in the middle in the vineyard. You have to walk out through the vines to visit Saint Anna Chapel which can only hold about 10 people (it is very small). A great picture spot.

The beautiful Little Bradley Falls which is much easier (and safer) to reach that the larger Big Bradley Falls. A pleasant walk through the forest will lead you to this beauty although there is a creek crossing that require you to get your feet wet if the water level is high.
