High Bridge Trail State Park recognizes Stewardship Virginia which is a statewide initiative held twice annually to help citizens with projects that enhance and conserve Virginia's natural and cultural resources. On Saturday, Oct. 27, at 3:30 p.m. High Bridge Trail State Park's Chief Ranger Craig Guthrie will lead a three-mile walk across High Bridge. He will point out some of the many spectacular native plants and animals that call the trail home. He will also collect some of the brilliant fall colors for a leaf identification program. Participants should meet at the River Road access. Please bring drinking water.

High Bridge Trail State Park is a multi-use trail ideally suited for hiking, bicycling and horseback riding. The trail, once a rail bed, is wide, level and generally flat. Its surface is covered with finely crushed limestone. The trail's surface and dimensions make it easy for people of all ages and abilities to enjoy it.
