Lexington

A river flows through the alpine village of Lexington. Both Washington & Lee University and the Virginia Military Institute have their backs bordered by the Maury River, which burbles past them after spilling down from Goshen Pass. It's not far to the wider James River. The Appalachian Trail and Blue Ridge Parkway are also close by. Consider spending a weekend outdoors in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Your spirit can be renewed by the wilderness, wildlife, and rivers in the small town of Lexington. The Virginia Military Institute and Washington Lee University are located there, and these institutions contribute significantly to the town's social and cultural life.

You should stop at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the Stonewall Jackson Mansion, Lee Chapel, and the George C. Marshall Museum while strolling through Lexington. Perhaps you'd want to visit the Virginia Horse Center, where you might see a horse competition in place. If you enjoy being outside, Lexington has the Laurel Run Trail for hiking, Devil's Marbleyard for climbing boulders, and Goshen Pass for bicycling. The surrounding trails in the Jefferson and George Washington National Forests, the Boxerwood Nature Center, the Woodland Garden, and other outdoor alternatives are also available. You'll like Lexington's dining selections because so many places serve you wholesome, farm-to-table fare. With no national chain stores and only small boutiques and shops in the downtown area, the shopping experiences are also regionally focused.
