Quick Summary:
- Greenville is the largest city in Greenville County, and although it offers its fair share of attractions, you might find yourself wanting to head out of town on a day trip.
- If this is the case, you're in luck; the states of Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina are all within driving distance, and you have your pick of big cities, rural agricultural counties, and historic villages.
- It's also relatively easy to get to the Blue Ridge Mountains, where you can explore charming mountain cities, enjoy the beauty of pristine lakes and waterfalls, and hike to your heart's content.
