Shope Creek Wilderness is located on 131.6 acres in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains 10 miles from the center of Asheville, North Carolina.

The Blue Ridge Mountains are part of the Appalachian Chain, the oldest mountains in the 

United States.

We offer visitors the opportunity to experience themselves in novel and expanded ways.  Our offerings include natural and man made attractions focused on personal alignment and realization of the “true self”.  We call our energy based sessions “playdates”.  We take full advantage of our forest setting, our flowing water resources, the numerous energy vortexes and being in the energetic “apron” of Mount Mitchell, the highest point on the Eastern Seaboard.

The  story of Shope Creek Wilderness begins in a time before time with a covenant among beings who seeded this land and agreed to return at this time to assist in awakening energies and consciousness that have been long forgotten. 

The story has grown and evolved to its current state of being about a living, learning center where the teachers are The Land, all the seen and unseen nature spirits and all beings who choose to visit. 

Shope Creek Wilderness has taken root as we were called to bring six parcels of land back together to “re-member” this sacred, magical space and to experience and participate in the changes taking place on the planet at  this time. 

SHIFT HAPPENS

These are currently the core elements of the evolving story that is Shope Creek Wilderness: 

A realization that everything is energy and all energy comes from the same Source.

Energy always seeks to move and expand and all things are malleable. 

Anything and everything is possible. 

Proper use of story is an excellent way to move energy and navigate life. 

When you let go of what has been, you allow what can be. Simply let go, accept and allow.

You never have done nor will you ever do anything wrong.  Every experience is unique and is Source Energy expressing as and through you expanding the universe/multiverse.

These elements and much, much more combine to create a space for those who choose to come, or come by chance, to receive exactly what they need and are ready for to further their life’s journey and to take those gifts back into the world. 

There is no specific blueprint, currently in consciousness, for this story other than to let the land speak and direct us, to pierce the veil of  the “one-off” experience of the world around us and to illuminate and to bring into clarity the unseen members of nature. When fairies, nature spirits, Yeti and dragons are perceived as real and as common place as cars, cell phones and televisions, a space will be opened for another level of magic and mystical to emerge … 

and then, the real fun will begin. 

Come join us and play and expand into the field of infinite possibilities
