New Highland County Concierge Maps

Would you like to be a concierge for Highland County? In January 2018, the Highland Tourism Council will release a new concierge map for Highland County and will hold trainings for partners interested in carrying the map. This map will aid representatives, such as retail and lodging partners, tourism representatives, real estate agents, county staff, and more, who are in need of a map to direct customers, travelers, and new county residents to destinations throughout Highland County.

Any partner willing to have and use the concierge map will need to attend a brief training to gain knowledge of the uses of the maps as well as anticipated frequently asked questions. Two trainings will be held – Wednesday, January 17 at 5:30 pm and Saturday, January 20 at 10 am. Trainings will be held at The Highland Center. Partners attending the training will be given supplies and pre-determined, pre-printed information to assist customers, travelers, or residents in the most efficient manner possible. Information to be included in the training will consist of information on hiking and walking trails, scenic driving routes, birding, sugar camps, the Highland Visitor Center, and more.

This initial training will be followed by a second training and discussion in the spring to gather further questions, comments, and data about the use of the new concierge map.

Information on the new Highland County concierge maps include: retail and lodging facilities, restaurants, businesses, sugar camps, attractions, and other points of interest, such as the McDowell Battlefield, post offices, and the Confederate Breastworks.


Interested participants are asked to sign up for this training no later than Friday, January 5. For more information or to sign up, please call the Highland County Chamber of Commerce & Tourism Council at 540-468-2550 or email findyourescape@highlandcounty.org
