Winter in Lexington

On sunny winter days, top adventure destinations include the summits of House Mountain, the trails along the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the boulders at Devils Marbleyard. Route 39 through Goshen Pass is a gorgeous cycling route, where rocky views of the river unfurl beside you. Several regional ski resorts open for skiing, snowboarding, and ice skating.

Trails & Walks

Several inviting trails are a short stroll, or easy drive, from downtown Lexington and Buena Vista. Follow the river, wander the woods, or hunt for geo-cached treasures.

Scenic Drives

Country roads curve through the Shenandoah Valley, linking historic villages and picturesque wineries to the nation’s most popular drive – The Blue Ridge Parkway.

Farms & Gardens

For a hands-on culinary adventure, visit a local farm. Bite into a juicy pear. Pick your own blackberries. Wander through an old mill. Or simply wave at the cows.

Golf & Recreation

Unfurling across rolling hilltops a few miles from the Blue Ridge Mountains, Vista Links is an inspiring place for a round of golf.
