The Virginia Creeper Trail Conservancy is dedicated to the preservation and maintenance of the Virginia Creeper Trail, a historic route that has become a vital recreational asset for the communities of Abingdon and Damascus, Virginia. Spanning 34 miles, the trail runs along a former rail line that played a significant role in the industrial expansion of the United States in the late 19th century.
Following the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene, the Conservancy has initiated a Recovery Campaign to support rebuilding efforts, emphasizing the importance of community involvement and funding. The motto "One trail by the hands of many" underlines the collaborative spirit required to restore this cherished trail and ensure its longevity for future generations.
