Celebrate the anniversary of Virginia State Parks with a scenic guided walk along the New River. Go back in time to the historic village of Foster Falls. During this guided walk, an interpretive ranger will share stories of the local mining history as we explore the remains of the once booming late 19th century iron industry.
This approximately one-mile walk does have several inclines and declines. Please meet at the caboose in the Foster Falls parking lot. Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes. Leashed pets are welcome.
Stay a bit longer! At 7:00 p.m. our Music Series is hosting Star City Swag in our amphitheater. Bring a chair, something to drink, some food, and enjoy live music.
