This Western North Carolina Map is a branch of the North Carolina Travel Map that we’ve created for the entire state.

Western North Carolina Map
Map Created via Google Maps.

This map, like those dedicated to Eastern and Central North Carolina, alphabetically features specific counties and attractions within each one.

After sharing the embedded western NC map with cities, we will then break down what makes up Western North Carolina before sharing the attractions listed. Many of these locations will be linked to individual North Carolina travel guides that we’ve created.

Western North Carolina Map Defined

Map of North Carolina highlighting Western North Carolina

Western North Carolina stretches from the Tennessee border to South Carolina and Georgia in the south.

To the east of the North Carolina mountain map is the Foothills. The Foothills begin as the Piedmont of Central North Carolina gradually rise. This Foothills region includes popular attractions and places to visit like Chimney Rock State Park, Hickory, Lake Lure, Shelby, and Wilkesboro.

While there are multiple answers to “What makes up Western North Carolina,” we’ve defined its eastern edges from north to south as follows:

  • Alleghany County
  • Wilkes County
  • Alexander County
  • Catawba County
  • Lincoln County
  • Gaston County

Including the Qualla Boundary (Cherokee), here are all 23 counties of western NC included in our Western North Carolina map:

Anything to Add to Our Western North Carolina Map?

We’ve tried to add as many locations to this Western North Carolina map and understand we may have missed a spot or two. If you know of a great place that should be included, please kindly let us know here in the comments section or by email.

You’re always welcome to share your favorite places in our North Carolina Travel Facebook Group.

Beyond the Western North Carolina Map (Travel Guides)

Before you do that, though, here are some travel guides we’ve created that go even deeper into the region.

2 thoughts on “Western North Carolina Map (400+ Wonderful Places Listed)”

  1. Do you know of anyone who shows places that are available to wheelchairs? Particularly rivers that are accessible to fish? Also, are any of your maps hard copies? My husband likes to mark his maps!

  2. A great place in Caldwell County is The Mitford Museum! It is located in a darling old school building that has been converted into an arts center in Hudson, NC. A wonderful and touching museum that tells the story of NYT Best Selling Author, Jan Karon. It also hosts a yearly literary festival and photography contest. Highly recommend!
