George Washington National Forest

We are blessed to live in a state that is so beautiful, and has so much to offer. My family and I try to do something new each week, whether it be eating at a new restaurant, going to a new park, or getting to the beach, bay, or mountains. This past weekend, we made it up to the mountains, and found ourselves in the George Washington National Forest in Nelson county. We took a quick hike up to Spy Rock, one of the best viewpoints in the Blue Ridge. With two young children, we weren't able to hang out long, but long enough to really enjoy the scenery. The photo below is of Mount Pleasant, one of the highest peaks in the area. We'll be heading back again soon.

The 1-million-acre George Washington National Forest is steeped in American and pre-American tradition: a one-time home for Indians, a passageway for pioneers and a battleground during the Revolutionary and Civil Wars. Today, the forest offers an assortment of recreational experiences in one of the East's largest expanses of pristine land. Available activities include hiking, fishing, backpacking, biking, camping, wildlife viewing, and scenic driving.
