Charlottesville's notorious outdoor pedestrian mall with lots of great restaurants and shops!
Check out the historic UVA grounds, designed by Thomas Jefferson. We recommend starting with the Rotunda and grabbing a spot of The Lawn for an afternoon nap!

Just south of the Shenandoah National Park entrance, the Blue Ridge Parkway is great for a scenic drive and additional hikes and viewpoints, including Humpback Rock Hike and Raven's Roost for views!
