Old Virginia Group Horse Campground - Campground near Troutdale, Virginia, United States - Description

Old Virginia Group Horse Campground

Old Virginia Group Horse Camp is a primitive camping area located in Fairwood Valley and only minutes from the Virginia Highlands Horse Trail. If you are looking for a private place to camp with your horses while having access to a large network of horse trails in the Mount Rogers National Recreation Area, this is the spot. Groups of up to 25 people with horses will enjoy the peace and quiet of the mountains in your own private campground. Groups without horses are also welcome. This area is easily accessed from a paved state road.

You will need to bring your own drinking water, tools for manure removal, and plan to use non-flush toilets. A nearby stream provides water for horses. Showers can be taken at a nearby campground for an additional fee.

Take exit 45 off I-81 at Marion, Virginia. Take Rt.16 south for approximately 17 miles to VA 603 at Troutdale. Turn right onto VA 603 and follow it for about 3 miles to the campground which will be on your right. A site identification sign is on the gravel driveway.
