Welcome to Hike Virgina.org!

As of March 22, 2011 there are over 1248 Virginia parks listed here!

About HikeVirginia
I created this web site because I could not find a single web source that described and provided maps of the many great parks and forests in Virginia.
I first began my search for parks and maps of Virginia's hiking trails when I wanted to take my three-year-old daughter hiking in the local state forests. I wanted to find maps for each park so that my daughter and I would not take on a trail that she could not handle. As she older, the maps let us know how long the new trails we found on our explorations and if we could make circuit hikes. BTW, she's now 15!

Help!
If you would like to let me know about a park near you or correct anything you find here, please e-mail me (David) with any information you have. I really need all the help I can get with local parks.

Click a county on the map or any large white area for the whole state. It may take a long time for the whole state!

Sources of Information
The park descriptions are compiled from other web sites, such as federal, state, county and city web sites and from documentation I received from the state. In many cases I have edited several together into one description. Each listing notes the original sites at which I found the information. These links may no longer work but I am keeping them for archival purposes. If you have questions, comments or suggestions e-mail me (David).
