Places We Recommend in Charlottesville!

Humpback Rocks

Milepost 5.8 Blue Ridge Parkway, Lyndhurst, VA 22952, USA
(540) 943-4716

Hiking Humpback Rocks is a relatively short hike following a 2.0-mile (3.2 km) trail loop. With a roughly 45 minute hike to ascend 740 feet (230 m) to the peak, and a 20–25 minute descent, the trail ranks as one of the shorter hikes along the Blue Ridge. The peak affords a spectacular 360-degree view of the surrounding terrain. To the north you can see into the southern section of Shenandoah National Park, to the east a patchwork of farms, to the southwest thick woods and mountain ridges of the George Washington National Forest.

No other home in the United States more accurately reflects the personality of its owner than Monticello. Monticello is the autobiographical masterpiece of Thomas Jefferson—designed and redesigned and built and rebuilt for more than forty years—and its gardens were a botanic showpiece, a source of food, and an experimental laboratory of ornamental and useful plants from around the world. Visit the historic site and take a tour! P.S. be sure to visit Michie Tavern for lunch or dinner, which is known for its 18th-century southern recipes, southern culture, and southern hospitality.

This is Jesses favorite place to eat locally! - The Barbecue Exchange is the culmination of a 37-year culinary journey. Craig and Donna Hartman’s lives have been centered around the love of food! Craig’s love of all things cooking, and especially over a live fire, led them to a deep love for old school, slow-cooked BBQ. Featuring hickory smoked, slow roasted pork shoulders, ribs, brisket and pork belly, chicken halves grilled over live coals and finished in the smoker. Try our Brunswick Stew, baked beans, fried green tomatoes or hushpuppies, to mention a few. Add your choice of our made fresh daily large variety of salads, flavored pickles, rolls, cornbread, and pumpkin muffins. Save room for the desserts; cookies, cupcakes and brownies. All served counter-style with seat yourself picnic tables in a casual, family atmosphere. - Serving Lunch and Dinner.

Jesses Favorite Order: The Heaven, sub Pulled Pork for Chopped Brisket.
