New River Trail State Park

I highly recommend visiting the New River Trail State Park! It is a beautiful park perfect for biking! If you go, and want to camp, be sure to reserve spot # 9 at the Millrace Campground. I feel it is the best camping spot. You are just feet from the river here and have a spectacular view. The camp ground brochure speaks about a «small hike» to get there, but it’s nothing! Just steps away. They even provide carts to help you haul your stuff from the parking lot to the campground. The only thing this campsite is missing are showers. If this park had showers it would be perfect. You can set up camp and then get shuttled to Pulaski and bike about half way down or 20 – 25 miles back to the campground, then camp overnight and get up in the morning and bile the final miles down into the town of Galax. It is a wonderful get away spot! Enjoy it!
