The trail runs from Abingdon to Whitetop, Virginia, near the North Carolina state line – through National Forest and crossing numerous restored trestles and crossing the Appalachian Trail. The trail descends from Abingdon to Damascus, traversing rolling farm countryside and numerous parcels of private property – requiring opening and closing private gates along the route. From Damascus, hikers, cyclists and equestrians ascend to Whitetop, following Laurel Creek. Cyclists can use a shuttle service to Whitetop for the 17-mile return descent.

Mabry Mill - Beautiful Spot on Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia

Mabry Mill is one of my favorite stops on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Southern Virginia. It's an old gristmill and sawmill near an area called Meadows of Dan. There's the mill, lots of displays about Appalachian life, an old log home, and lots of friendly folks to explain what you are seeing. There's a nice restroom in the little restaurant / gift store. Get off the parkway at Meadows of Dan to visit some nice homespun stores, and Nancy's Candy Store is a real treat too. Really worth a visit.
