Winter Hikes, Winter Fun!

Stay active this winter with a hike through our pristine Blue Ridge hiking and waterfall trails. Winter views are stunning!  Typically, we experience mild winters and day temperatures are pleasant.  We are fortunate to have a broad range of elevations, no snow in the valley means you can drive to the ridgeline for snow tubing or skiing!

Tom's Creek Falls is an easy walk, a mile in, following the creek line.  This is a fairly level trail, it's well marked and great for the beginner or a great choice for children!

Take a look at the other 8 waterfalls in our region of the Blue Ridge, a section of the Appalachian Mountain Range.  Trails are open year-round, come stay with us!
