About

The 37th state park was dedicated on September 24, 2016, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a National Historic Landmark in 1988, the 215-foot tall Natural Bridge is a limestone gorge carved out by Cedar Creek. The park is more than just the bridge; beautiful forests and rolling meadows showcase the area’s karst terrain and vistas of surrounding mountains and the James River valley display nature’s splendor. Access these via 7 miles of hiking trails, including Cedar Creek Trail that leads from the park’s Visitor Center under the bridge to the saltpeter cave, lost river, and Lace Falls with its 30-foot cascade. You can also enjoy our Thistle Ridge Disc Golf Trail and our Children's Discovery Area. Start at the visitor center where you will find exhibits and a gift shop.
