A Greenville weekend from Falls Park to Paris Mountain

4:00 PM

Stay at The Westin Poinsett Greenville.

Historic full-service hotel on central Main Street, close to the Peace Center, Falls Park, restaurants, and the West End.

6:30 PM

Start with Jianna.

Modern Italian cooking and freshly shucked oysters in a South Main Street dining room overlooking Falls Park; weekend dinner reservations are wise.

8:30 AM

Start with Coffee Underground.

Independent downtown café with specialty coffee, homemade desserts, a creative café menu, and an artsy below-street room off Main Street.

10:00 AM

Walk Falls Park, then follow the trail north.

Begin at Liberty Bridge and the waterfall gardens. Continue through the West End, then join the Swamp Rabbit Trail toward Cleveland Park and Unity Park or ride farther toward Travelers Rest.

4:30 PM

Choose Unity Park, Fluor Field, or a hotel break.

After the trail, use the late afternoon for a riverfront pause, a baseball game, a museum, or time back at the hotel before dinner.

7:00 PM

Make Between The Trees the planned meal.

Modern lodge cuisine inside Grand Bohemian Lodge, serving breakfast, brunch, and dinner with views and outdoor-fireplace seating beside Falls Park.

9:00 AM

Start Sunday with Coffee Underground.

Coffee Underground keeps breakfast downtown before the drive to Paris Mountain or a final walk along Main Street.

11:00 AM

Walk Lake Placid before the drive home.

Paris Mountain is close enough for a short lake loop. Skip the park when weather or departure timing favors the Greenville County Museum of Art, Roper Mountain, or an unhurried downtown exit.
