Major site
Virginia Creeper Trail
The Virginia Creeper Trail is retracing an ancient railway line between Abingdon, Damascus and the nearby mountains. Wood bridges, streams, forests and small communities follow each other with a gentle slope, perfect for cycling or walking without any sports pressure. In autumn, the hardwoods add a color that naturally slows down the pace.
Culture and heritage
Barter Theatre
The Barter Theatre keeps the memory of a project born during the economic crisis where banknotes sometimes paid in kind, detail that gives a human texture to the place. Today, its living programming animates the centre of the city.Abingdon with a rare proximity to a historic theatre.
Culture and heritage
Grayson Highlands State Park
Grayson Highlands shows high-altitude meadows, rocks and fir trees crossed by trails to the Appalachian Trail. The views quickly open onto a very high version of Appalachians; the presence of wild ponies adds an unusual reading of the peak landscape.
Culture and heritage
