Do you know the feeling when your legs are so sore, but you can’t even brag to anyone because it’s from Jazzercise? Story of my life. Running the Huckleberry Trail gives you the same effect without the shame.
The Huckleberry Trail is a six mile long trail that connects Blacksburg to Christiansburg. There are plans to hopefully extend it across Route 114 and to the Jefferson National Forest.
If you’re a Hokie, you know that parking on campus is a nightmare. However, on either ends of the Trail there is FREE parking. Truly amazing.
Whether you walk, run or bike, the picturesque views help you become in touch with your surroundings. Along the trail are many benches to rest and stop to take pictures on your adventure.
