First Day Hike at Southwest Virginia Museum

Participants will meet rangers at the front gate of the museum and take a walk through time as they begin their hike on the grounds of the museum. They will then make their way down a portion of the Big Stone Greenbelt along the beautiful Powell River, and then end up back in the Poplar Hill area of town. Throughout the hike, rangers will share information about the history of the town itself and point out interesting architectural details on many of the historical homes and buildings in the area,

This is a moderate hike. Guests are asked to wear appropriate shoes and clothing for the weather. In the event of inclement weather, the hike will be canceled. Registration is required.
