Geocache Description:

"Travel Bug Rest Stop." Welcome Center picnic area. Paved parking, paved path to gravel drive then a short walk through open woods.

Warning: DO NOT stop on the freeway to get to the cache! You can be ticketed!

Visit the North Carolina Rest Stop & Welcome Center located on I-26 west-bound at the Tryon Columbus Exit for Highways 108 and 74.

Closest Parking Coordinates: 14.193N and 12.134W. This hide is a nice five minute stroll. Walk down the paved walkway/service road through the picnic area. “You take the high road and I’ll take the low road and I’ll get there before ya.” Follow the graveled drive to “Do Not Enter – Wrong Way” then head WEST a short distance off the gravel drive to the cache. The tree cover may challenge your GPS but you can see a sign for the Columbus/Tryon exit from I-26 while standing at the cache.
