Recreation, culture and history abound in the Western North Carolina county of Madison.  Visit the town of Hot Springs, an outdoor enthusiasts paradise, with the Appalachian Trail, whitewater rafting and canoeing on the French Broad River, and North Carolina's only hot mineral baths.  In Mars Hill, stop in at the Rural Life Museum on the Mars Hill College Campus or take in a play at the Southern Appalachian Repertory Theatre. And in the winter ski, snowboard or tube at the ski slopes.  In Marshall, the county seat, walk down historic Main Street or go to the Depot for traditional music and dancing on Friday nights.
