18 Must-See Hidden Gems in Southwest Virginia and Eastern Tennessee
If you're looking for a unique and unforgettable travel experience, Southwest Virginia and Eastern Tennessee should be at the top of your list.
Here are 18 beautiful places that’ll leave you in awe:
1.Natural Tunnel State Park
Natural Tunnel State Park: This hidden gem boasts a stunning natural tunnel that was carved by a river over thousands of years.
It has stunning views, a 1,600 foot boardwalk that lets you get up close and personal with the Tunnel.
A chairlift that takes you down to the tunnel floor that is the coolest thing (for kids especially), just remember your walking shoes .
I actually had a friend wear flip flops and lost one while riding the chairlift and it’s a hell of a ways down and is not accessible to the public.
The campgrounds, cabins, picnic areas, and visitor center, a swimming pool equipped with a twisty water slide , as well as 7 trails with different levels of difficulty.
Easy access to more history than you can shake a stick at. Trust me, you won’t be bored here.
2. Grayson Highlands State Park
