Have you ever wondered how flora and fauna survive in a winter wonderland?

If so, join us for a guided hike along Cottonwood Trail. We'll discuss the habits of animals such as salamanders and the survival techniques of our beloved Bluebells and other plants. This hike will be a 1.5-mile round trip on easy terrain. The trail is mostly flat and includes a raised wooden boardwalk. All ages are welcome.

For more information, please email megan.goin@dcr.virginia.gov or call our interpretive office at (540) 622-2262.

Parks are for everyone. Please let us know if you need special accommodations.
