Virginia Hiking and Outdoor Opportunities
Home > Find and Inn > Virginia Hiking & The Outdoors | BBAV
The Appalachian Mountains, the Shenandoah Valley, the Eastern Shore, the Back Bay, national forests, Great Falls Park.... There is no shortage of outdoor recreation in Virginia. Virginia Bed and Breakfasts periodically offer specials designed to help guests tap into the great outdoors of Virginia.
Whether you like to fish, ski, hike, or take a scenic drive, there is something for you in Virginia. Meandering rivers leave dense mountain forests and wind their way to sandy shores. Drive the Blue Ridge Parkway and Skyline Drive; take in the views from scenic overlooks, or park the car and hike along miles of trails. In the winter, discover that there is great skiing in Virginia.
Virginia Bed and Breakfasts may help guests find their way into a hot-air balloon or a river raft. They may provide a picnic to take on a hike, or saddle guests with a horse. Golfers may enjoy admission into a local golf club, and fishermen a guided fly-fishing trip. The possibilities are endless.
