The Virginia Blue Ridge Railway Trail is one of the most beautiful rail-trail experiences you’ll find in Virginia. The trail is located in Central Virginia, just a little less than an hour from both Lynchburg and Charlottesville. The leisurely seven mile trail covers diverse and beautiful landscapes. Unique historical sites are stationed along the way, and hikers will be sure to see remnants of the old train.
