The fresh mountain air in Virginia is even more wonderful in spring when wildflowers are blooming. Here are some things to do in Virginia in spring that will get you outside so you can enjoy nature:
- Wildflower Weekend, Shenandoah National Park: There are hundreds of species of wildflowers in Shenandoah National Park, so springtime is a wonderful time to go on a nature walk. During Wildflower Weekend you can go on guided wildflower hikes to experience the wonder and beauty of this incredible natural wonder. Some of our favorite trails you can explore include Passamaquoddy Loop, the Skyland-Big Meadows Horse Trail, Hightop Mountain, and the Appalachian Trail from Milam Gap to Tanner’s Ridge. Another fun activity is the botanical art and journaling workshops with local artists.
- Gloucester Daffodil Festival, Gloucester, VA: One of the first signs of spring in Virginia is when daffodils rise toward the sun with their bright yellow and white blossoms. In early April, you can take part in a fun and vibrant flower festival with parades, live music, and plenty of yummy food. There will be a ton of arts and crafts vendors, a flower show, and even the crowning of the Daffodil Queen and Little Miss Daffodil. The event is free to attend!
- Visit the Norfolk Botanical Garden, Norfolk, VA: Another wonderful place to take in some fresh spring flowers is the Botanical Garden in Norfolk. With 175 acres to explore, it is easy to lose yourself in miles of daffodils, cherry blossoms, azaleas, and tulips. Enjoy themed gardens with enjoyable walking trails winding around the gardens. Or, take some time out with the kids at the cool children's garden with a splash pad. The butterfly house is another fun area to see dancing butterflies and even more spectacular blooming flowers.
