Landrum, South Carolina

About this city

Landrum is a charming, historic mountain resort and trailside town nestled snugly inside a rolling green valley at the far northern foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Spartanburg County. Founded meticulously in 1880 as a vital shipping terminal during the rapid rail expansion of the Spartanburg and Asheville Railroad, the town has beautifully preserved its pioneer-era brick storefronts. Today, Landrum acts as an exceptionally romantic, community-driven mountain culture capital, world-renowned among equestrian elites and antique treasure hunters for its immediate access to pristine national forest gorges.
