Greenville shopping is more than a hobby.

Shopping in Greenville, South Carolina, is quite an excursion. You can drive north to the outlet malls in Gaffney or head south to the Tanger Outlet Malls in Georgia. Or you can stay close to home, which provides something for everyone (including organic groceries at Whole Foods and Earth Fare).

Shopping in Greenville often starts at Haywood Mall, The Shops at Greenridge, Woodruff Road or Cherrydale, where all locations offer top name-brand stores. Next, drive five minutes to Augusta Road, where countless boutique shops await.

Finally, park your car, bring out your walking shoes and peruse the many, many downtown and West End shops.

Look up to the Blue Ridge Mountains

Hiking the Blue Ridge Mountains is a favorite activity of the Upstate. One visit will show you why. With peaks as high as Mount Mitchell’s 6,684 feet, the Blue Ridge Mountains are just minutes from Greenville (just drive north and look up).

They offer sights that are hard to compare this side of Switzerland. Enjoy thousands of miles of hiking trails, hundreds of waterfalls, numerous state parks and two nationally protected forests. You could live here you entire life and not explore all that the Blue Ridge Mountains have to offer.
