If you have the time, we highly recommend checking out McAfee Knob or any other part of the Virginia Triple Crown Loop on the Appalachian Trail. The hike to McAfee Knob (the most photographed spot on the Appalachian Trail!) is a strenuous 8.5 miles but provides an excellent vista.

If you're looking for shorter and easier hikes, we also recommend looking into Read Mountain Preserve (2 mi, approx. 15 minutes from the venue), Carvin's Cove Natural Reserve (many trails, approx. 20 minutes from the venue), Sharp Top and the Peaks of Otter area (1.5 miles, approx. 45 minutes from the venue), and Cascades National Recreation Trail (4 miles, approx. 1 hour from the venue).
