00:05 Hey there, it's Chloe from afar. Today we're showing you several charming small
00:09 towns in the U.S. worth a visit. Let's get into it.
00:12 [Music]
00:20 Dahlonega is a small town in Georgia that's one of our favorites
00:23 thanks to its gold rush history and proximity to the Appalachian Trail.
00:27 But don't forget to also check out the nearby Amicalola State Park,
00:31 which is home to the tallest waterfall in the state.
00:33 Langley is a town located on Washington's Whidbey Island,
00:40 making it the perfect day or overnight trip from Seattle.
00:43 Of course it's beautiful here, but let's give a shout out to its outstanding seafood too.
00:48 We love local specialties like its oysters and mussels.
00:51 Whitewater rafters, rock climbers, mountain bikers,
00:56 they've long been in the know when it comes to Fayetteville and the nearby
00:59 New River Gorge National Park. Outdoor adventure is the name of the game here,
01:03 whether you want to hike along sandstone cliffs or ride along Class 5 rapids.
01:07 But we also love spending time in downtown Fayetteville for its brewery scene.
01:11 Leadville, Colorado's got everything you could want in a mountain town.
01:16 We're talking miles of hiking, biking, and cross-country trails.
01:20 Just be prepared for high altitude. The town sits at more than 10,000 feet above sea level.
01:25 Cody, Wyoming was founded by Buffalo Bill, which makes sense considering the town's Wild West spirit.
01:30 You can learn about it at one of the museums in the Buffalo Bill Center of the West,
01:34 or by experiencing one of the town's nightly rodeos.
01:36 Eureka Springs is named after the natural springs found in this part of the Ozarks.
01:44 This place was a Victorian-era resort town, which you can see in its architecture.
01:49 Its downtown is even listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
01:53 If you want to learn about even more small towns, head over to afar.com or click the link in the description.
