The Community - Lynchburg, VA
Lynchburg has fun things to do all year round, whether you're looking for an afternoon of dining, a trip to the past, or a literal climb through downtown! With more than 40 miles of urban trails that wind through the city, you can walk, bike, or run on highly celebrated trails like the Blackwater Creek Trail at Percival's Island, which crosses the historic James River. Step back into the past while visiting Thomas Jefferson's Poplar Forest, where archaeology and restoration are always in progress. These grounds of the National Historic Landmark present guests with an opportunity to explore Jefferson's life outside the public eye while learning the land's history. Don't forget about the Maier Museum of Art at Randolph College, which was the secret storage location for the National Gallery during the Cold War, interestingly enough. No matter what you're looking for, you'll find it (plus more) in abundance in Lynchburg! Learn more of what you can do .Airport Information: Dulles International Airport
