Hidden Virginia (Paperback)

Combining unique travel choices, outdoor adventures, and little-known locales into guides where vacations meet adventures, each title in the Hidden series also offers readers the comfort of detailed maps, Internet information for each listing, author picks, suggested itineraries, and walking and driving tours. Hidden Virginia leads to famous sites including American Indian settlements, colonial villages, Civil War battlefields, and plantation homes. The author then guides readers to less visited areas including a special walking tour through the historic building of quaint Gloucester and a driving tour along the Blue Ridge Highland - stompin' grounds for live bluegrass and folk music jamborees. Hidden Virginia surveys outdoor adventures from hiking the Appalachian trail and whitewater rafting on Russell Fork River to camping in quiet woods and relaxing on sunny beaches. An inn-hopping guide to the Shenandoah Valley, Hidden Virginia reviews over 50 bed-and-breakfast inns housed in country estates, old mansions, working farms, and even rustic cabins. 20 maps are included.
