Of course, we know you'll work up an appetite along your trail, so we also recommend some local food favorites you shouldn't miss. We also point out some great places to find that special gift, work of art or antique to remind you of you visit. We even give you tips on places to enjoy local theatre?and suggest the best vantage points for your snapshots.
