The Asheville Urban Trail has often been called Asheville's "museum without walls." Started by a small group of citizens interested in helping revitalize downtown, the Urban Trail consists of thirty stations of bronze sculpture around downtown. Each station has a plaque illuminating some of the very interesting histories of downtown's development and the various notable people who once lived here. Mostly local artists helped to create the whimsical bronze sculptures and other artworks that are found at each station. The tour is a 1.7-mile walk that begins and ends at Pack Place and takes about two hours to complete in its entirety.
