Description
Hike, bike, swim, kayak, and camp here in historic Fries, a rural town located on the banks of the New River. These two available driveway sites, located in-town on a vacant residential property, are a rare find. Direct access to the New River Trail is a less than 10 second bike ride away. The New River is seasonally visible from the property. Direct access to the river is at the other end of town at the New River State Park parking area and trailhead.
Fries is an outdoors lover's heaven! Hike or bike the New River Trail, 57 miles in length Fries to Pulaski. Swim, tube, kayak, canoe, and fish in the New River, putting in at the New River State Park trailhead in town. Go for a swim at the outdoor pool at the Fries Community Center. For a bit of relaxation and cultural immersion, head over to the old time music jam at the Community Center on Thursday nights at 7:00 pm; bring your instrument and join in or just go to listen! Grayson Highlands State Park, Mount Rogers, Whitetop Mountain, and the Jefferson National Forest are each about a scenic hour's drive from Fries."
NOTE: RVs, pull-behinds, and vans are allowed but must be self-contained as there are no restroom facilities nor water available on-site.
