About This Trail

Descending 137 stone steps to walk beneath the 215-foot Natural Bridge, this trail follows Cedar Creek past a cave, a Native American village replica, and Lost River to Lace Falls. Virginia’s tallest natural arch and the creek’s carved limestone gorge make this Rockbridge County walk unforgettable.
