Lexington Outdoor Activities
 With over 58,000 acres of National Forest in Rockbridge County, there are abundant opportunities and avenues to take advantage of the great outdoors. Ride the rapids in a canoe or kayak; casually float in an inner tube down Maury River; hike along a stream; fish the rivers alive with bass, catfish, and trout; bicycle or horseback ride through the Blue Ridge Mountains; and hit the links at a countryside course with panoramic views.
If a relaxing time in nature is what your heart desires, hop in the car and enjoy one of many spectacular scenic drives through the Rockbridge area. Meander along lovely farmsteads and beautiful mountain scenery; marvel over scenic views from atop the Blue Ridge Mountains; explore the majestic mountain gorge alive with rhododendron, laurel, rocky cliffs, and rushing whitewater. There's something for every type of outdoor enthusiast in Lexington, so after a hearty, homemade breakfast at your quaint bed and breakfast head out to explore the area’s serene natural setting.
