- Spend a day on the slopes and then come “home” to our log fire. Winter activities at The Omni Homestead Resort include skiing, snowboarding, ice-skating, and tubing. And with lessons and terrain for all levels, everyone in your family can enjoy a day out on the slopes!
- Enjoy breathtaking mountain scenery with a hike in Douthat State Park. The park offers 43 miles of hiking, mountain biking and bridle trails.
- The Frontier Culture Museum is open 7 days a week, 362 days each year! This is not your typical “museum”! History really does come alive at the Frontier Culture Museum. Throughout the winter, the Museum features a range of hands-on activities, presentations and tours for adventurers of all ages.
- The Virginia Military Institute’s Museums and Archives are a must for history buffs. The museums include The Marshall Museum and the Virginia Museum of the Civil War.
- Experience Shakespeare. The American Shakespeare Center offers performances and special programming year-round of not only Shakespeare’s work, but also the work of his contemporaries and modern playwrights.
- Maple Donuts! Plan now to attend the famous Highland Maple Festival, held on the 2nd and 3rd weekends of March in neighboring Highland County.
