Along the Skyline Trail is an outdoor experiential area for families to have fun enjoying nature, the Children's Discovery Area. It has two components at this time: the Kids in Parks Track Trail and the soon to be certified Nature Explore Outdoor Classroom.
The Track Trail offers the chance to visit the site with a choice of four self-guided brochures. The brochures teach about pollinators, birds of the Blue Ridge, animals that may be seen in the park and how nature can hide and seek.
The outdoor classroom is a play space using natural features to engage children and immerse them in an outdoor environment of creative play. Remember when as a child you would play games in the woods in your neighborhood or explore wild adventures in a woodlot near you? This is exactly the same sort of experience, so come and plan to get dirty and have fun.
Sponsored by a generous grant from Dominion Power, The Freedom Food Festival and the Friends of Natural Bridge State Park, this site provides some of the most stunning views in the park.
So after you have seen the Natural Bridge take the time to enjoy being a kid again.
