It is with great joy and deepest gratitude we welcome you back to Biltmore. As the estate and our region continue to recover from Helene’s impacts, we ask that you review the following information as you make plans to join us.
Most roads are open, but if you will be coming in from areas west or north of Asheville, please be aware of the current status of I-40 and I-26:
For real-time traffic updates, road closure information, and alternate routes, please visit DriveNC.gov.
You will see extensive Helene recovery efforts underway as you near the estate. Biltmore’s iconic Lodge Gate stands ready to welcome you, as do our estate teams, each of whom looks forward to sharing our signature gracious hospitality. We appreciate your patience with temporary estate detours as we continue to repair roads and clean up our wooded areas.
The estate currently opens daily at 12 p.m. During this period of recovery, hours of operation will vary at estate shops, restaurants, and other locations. As you plan your day(s), please review our hours of operation.
Be sure to review our Visitor Information page for important guidance (such as our bag and cashless policies), helpful FAQs (what to wear, prohibited items, pets, etc.), and more to make your visit a smooth and enjoyable one.
Because our wooded areas require continued cleanup and are not yet safe for your use, estate trails will remain closed, and our Outdoor Adventure Center is currently closed. Despite these temporary closures and limitations, there are still plenty of things to do.
