Explore Rockbridge County in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley

Enter to win a road trip to Lexington, VA – the southern gateway to the Shenandoah Valley.

Rockbridge County is an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise, and historic downtown Lexington is the perfect place to unwind after a day of hiking, cycling, or paddling on the James and Maury rivers.

 Award-winning dining, boutique shops, legendary historic sites and an active music and art scene provide entertainment and energy to this architecturally beautiful town. If you love wine or beer (and who doesn’t?), Rockbridge County boasts a rich selection of scenic vineyards and fun, local breweries. 

 The giveaway package includes an overnight stay and in-room snacks for two at the Hampton Inn Col Alto, located in the heart of Lexington’s historic district.  This beautiful property is on the National Register of Historic Places and is within walking distance to restaurants, shops and attractions.

 Your adventure begins with a half day paddle trip with Twin River Outfitters on the Upper James River Water Trail.  Twin River has been running trips on the James since 1979.  Pick up your boxed trail lunch from the Southern Inn Restaurant in Lexington to enjoy along the banks of the river.  The Southern Inn was established in 1932 and has been a favorite spot for a great meal ever since.

 After your river excursion, head to Great Valley Farm Brewery to enjoy your complimentary beer tasting and to witness an unforgettable sunset.  Don’t leave without your free commemorative glasses to remember your trip.  To complete your evening, you will also receive two tickets for one of the many outdoor music events at Glen Maury Park in Buena Vista.  Bluegrass, rock, folk, gospel, and beach music are popular genres that are sure to get your toes tapping.

 In addition to all of these adventures, you will receive a Gregory Day Pack, Bridgedale Coolfusion Multi-Sport socks and a pair of Merrill All Out Blaze 2 waterproof boots.
