Hiking offers challenges and opportunities to enjoy the off-season at Virginia State Parks!

Wintertime is around the corner and Virginia State Parks have numerous things for you to do despite the cold weather. Check out the many activities you can do solo or with friends and family to enjoy this winter season.

Growing up in the city gave me a different perspective on nature and the great outdoors. I didn't go hiking or even want to be outdoors, but joining the Americorps program at a Virginia State Park changed that perspective.

Whether you're looking for a little solitude or a new perspective, winter is a great time to rediscover Twin Lakes.
