The oldest, standing covered-bridge in Virginia.
A group of us rode motorcycles out to visit this bridge. It is a magnificent structure and I highly recommend it. The bridge is in a now park-like setting. Get your bike, ride there, visit and talk to the bridge. You will enjoy it.

Gorgeous place with amazing scenery! We arrived first when it was very foggy which made for an incredible scene and when it was clear later in the day, the lighting was perfect!

Walked along the trail fo about 2 miles on a beautiful fall day. Started near the town of Falling Springs along the Jackson river to the interesting cliffs and rock formations. This trail is a great asset for the area!
