Augusta Health

Outdoor Recreation

 

Augusta Health is less than thirty minutes from Shenandoah National Park, the Skyline Drive, and the Blue Ridge Parkway, offering thousands of acres of unspoiled wilderness to hike, bike, and camp, as well as miles of pristine rivers and lakes. Featuring ski resorts, caverns, and a night sky drowned with stars, it won’t take long for you to know just how special our valley is.

Shenandoah National Park

Food & Drink

 

The Shenandoah Valley is home to Virginia’s first Culinary District. The bigger cities and towns offer a variety of dining excellence to satisfy any palate, while locally owned eateries in more rural areas offer the sort of comfort food your mother would make. The region is also home to numerous breweries, distilleries, and vineyards, including the Bold Rock Cidery and Devil’s Backbone brewery.

Brunch

Arts & Culture

 

The Valley boasts many renowned performing arts venues, historical museums, and music festivals that draw thousands of visitors each year. Just 15 minutes from Augusta Health is the American Shakespeare Center, which performs Shakespeare’s works in the world’s only recreation of the Globe Theatre.
