Visit the top three Hunger Games Locations in Asheville

The upcoming release of the Hunger Games has caused a rush of visitors to the Asheville area. Want to see where Katniss and crew filmed? Where they hung out? 

Here are the top three Asheville locations to visit on your Hunger Games tour. 


  1. Dupont State Forest: This plush forest served as the backdrop of the Arena, one of the most notable fixtures in the story. 
  2. Navitat Canopy Adventures: A favorite of Josh Hutcherson, better known as Peeta Mellark. Navitat specializes in high-adventure zip line canopy tours, with a heavy focus on educating guests about the natural environment, history and culture of the surrounding area.
  3. Lexington Avenue Brewery: A favorite watering hole for the cast. Enjoy a craft beer and an incredible meal at the 92' curving bar or a custom built dining table. 

Carolina Mornings can help you plan your Hunger Games vacation. Call us today to book a three night stay in one of our luxury Asheville mountain cabin rentals and receive a $50 gift certificate to Lexington Avenue Brewery and $10 off a zip line tour at Navitat. (per person) for any reservation departing March-April. Cannot combine with any other offers.
