Join us for a peaceful evening walk along the shores of Douthat Lake as the sun dips behind the mountains, casting golden light across the water and fall foliage. This guided walk offers breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding mountains, painted in the rich colors of autumn. As you walk and take in the views, a park ranger will share insights about the flora and fauna that call Douthat home. If we are lucky, we may see a Great Blue Heron gliding over the lake or an Osprey diving for a fish.

Bring your camera, your curiosity, and a sense of wonder as we reflect on the beauty of the season together.

This hike is approximately 0.5 miles with stairs, footbridges, and uneven terrain.

Parks are for everyone. If you have accessibility questions or concerns, please call 540-862-8114 or email Hannah.Johnson@dcr.virginia.gov.
