Visitors are surprised that a small town can offer such a variety of attractions and at the same time maintain historic character, warmth and charm.
A center for Arts, Abingdon is home of The Barter Theatre where visitors can experience live professional performances, historical Martha Washington Inn, William King Regional Arts Center, Fields/Penn 1860 House Museum and The Arts Depot, where visitors can tour working studios and view artist at work. Don't miss the annual Virginia Highlands Festival in August, named one of the top 20 "must see" summer events for 2005.
Outdoor activities abound particularly hiking, cycling, camping, birding and horseback riding. The Virginia Creeper Trail, a 34-mile rails-to-trails footpath and Mt. Rogers, National Recreation Area are the focal points for outdoor adventure.
Abingdon is indeed a history-filled town, a place visitor's return to time after time. Why not plan a visit to Abingdon soon!
