ASHEVILLE

Get a bird’s eye view of the magnificent colors of North Carolina’s Pisgah National Forest by signing up for Biltmore Estates’ Architectural Tour. Located near the Blue Ridge Parkway — a key destination for leaf peepers — this 250-room chateau in Asheville, N.C., built in the late 19th century by George Vanderbilt, offers a panoramic view of the forest from its roof. This daily 60-minute guided tour not only shows off the fall foliage, it also nips into areas not on the regular house visit.

Combine the tour with the Biltmore’s two-night Fall Celebration package (from $1,318), Oct. 26-28, and indulge in seasonal bounty. The package includes a gourmet breakfast buffet and dinner at Antler Hill Village Barn with a fresh-from-the-grill menu, wine, beer and live music. Also included: accommodations, estate daytime admission, audio guides to Biltmore House, pumpkin carving event and pumpkin lighting ceremony Oct. 27, a Halloween candy bar in the lobby and more.

Included with admission, tours and tastings are offered daily at the winery, featuring Pinot noir, merlot, Sangiovese, syrah, zinfandel, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc.
