Just visiting?Damascus is a small town with a BIG claim to fame: Several renowned trails intersect within our town limits, bestowing the honor of "Trail Town USA". As these trails pass through downtown Damascus, they bring along people, stories, and culture from all walks of life.
Virginia Creeper Trail Appalachian Trail (AT) Iron Mountain Trail Mid-Atlantic Backcountry Discovery Route TransAmerica Bicycle Trail / Route 76 TransVirginia Bike Route The Crooked Road Thanks to the efforts of our community - local government, dedicated staff, scores of volunteers, and residents - we've found ways to turn these trails and our other outdoor recreation resources into a source of local pride and community revitalization. From the many trails, parks, and public lands, to our shops and restaurants downtown, there is an adventure for everyone here. It's the kind of place where you'll find an adventure of your very own - one that makes you return again and again. We cherish this lifestyle and we know you will too. |
