Pipeline

A lovely getaway spot to see the Pipeline Rapids up close and, in season, catch Great Blue Herons nesting in their riverview rookery. The overlooks are worthy and, if you don’t mind climbing down a metal ladder and walking on the pipeline, the walk is an unexpected treat in the middle of a city.

Love that this place feels so cut off from the city yet is right downtown, just beautiful. Plus it’s where RVA was founded! https://youtu.be/cCzozMBBWPo
