About 12 miles west of town, past manicured hedgerows and tidy fencelines, Sky Meadows State Park (540-592-3556; admission on weekends, $2 to $4 per car) is a 1,862-acre retreat created largely by Paul Mellon and tailor-made for a day visit. Mount Bleak House was the home of the Settles, a farming family, 150 years ago and still has the look of a middle-class farmhouse in the mid-19th century. Imagine the Settles looking out at night at Confederate campfires speckled across the distant pastureland. The park has maps for easy loop hikes, one to four miles, in the Blue Ridge foothills. One leads to the Appalachian Trail, near the park's western border.
Beautiful hiking and horse trails for a great day out in the country! Dog friendly.
