Humpback Rocks Visitor Center
Humpback Rocks Visitor Center
About
This is the final Visitor Center on our tour today, as well as the second-to-last stop. In addition to the museum exhibits, this is a great place to plan your next Virginia road trip. You can also get a last minute souvenir, or ask any questions at the ranger station.
Outside of the Center itself, there are a variety of trails, including a branch of the Appalachian Trail. There’s also a very easy one that will take you through a re-creation of a settler’s farmstead. Historical reenactors will demonstrate techniques and give lectures on how the settlers survived in the Blue Ridge region. There is also a more difficult trail that leads to the Humpback Rocks themselves, with a 360 degree view as your reward.
