Virginias Railroad-converted Bike Trails; Two of Virginia’s best converted-railroad bike trails cross the history-steeped backlands in the southwest corner of the state. The Virginia Creeper Trail covers 34 mostly downhill miles from Whitetop through Damascus to Abingdon. The New River Trail is 57 miles long, from Galax or Fries to Pulaski. Both have shuttle services, are composed of asphalt or dirt, include scores of bridges or trestles, and open up otherwise inaccessible areas steeped in early musical history. The paths parallel rivers, and there are enough food stops, restaurants, and pastoral sites to make the combined 91 miles both fun and beautiful.
