Surrounded by unspoiled woods, tobacco farms that have been passed from one generation to the next and homey little towns, the Tobacco Heritage Trail is a path to your outdoor recreation and relaxation.  Explore the natural resources of this Southern Virginia rail-trail on horse, bicycle, or foot and journey back to the history and culture of a simpler time. Our trail is your trail; come on in and make yourself at home.

The trailhead begins at a parking lot near the remnants of an old cotton mill. The nearly 4 mile trail winds along the Dan River, passing a duck impoundment, the Diamond Hill Cemetery, a lookout over the Dan River, and ends just shy of Miry Creek.
