Known for its historical landmarks and unique assortment of restaurants, as well as its begonia-bedecked downtown streets and vibrant arts community, Lewisburg is adored and envied in equal measure by its neighbors in southern West Virginia.
Unique, vibrant, and ever-changing, Downtown Lewisburg has an energy and feeling that sets it apart from many places. Our artistic community is magnetic and draws entertainers, actors, musicians and artists from near and far.
Greenbrier Valley Trail and River. A 78-mile trail along a former railroad line that follows the Greenbrier River, it’s the longest trail such as this in the state of West Virginia, crossing 35 bridges and rolling through many towns along the way. While you might not make it that far, you don’t need too long of a journey along this easy, walkable path to take in the gorgeous river views and more than a few small waterfalls along the way.
Shopping. Along with shops carrying local craft work, fine arts, jewelry, there are antiques and glassware. There is also an excellent outfitter that carries everything you need for the outdoor
fun such as backpack-ing gear, kayaks and fly-fishing equipment.
Walking Tours. There is also a nicely laid out, self-guided walking tour of town, showcasing the many historical elements of town such as Confederate Cemeteries, Carnegie Hall, historic homes and other buildings.
I found a place that would be great for a couple's weekend, full of fine dining, and maybe catching a show or doing a little shopping, but it would also be a good spot for a few friends to do a little hiking, & catch some live music, or just relax.
