Brinegar Cabin is located at Milepost 238.5 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. It's a restored structure offering history about homesteading and the surrounding landscape from the late 1800s.

It's easy to start reading all the informational signs and walking around the short paths near the parking area, making this a great place to visit after a bike ride on the parkway.

Reminder of the good old, simple, times. Very nice garden on the site with interesting, rare, vegetable choices. Happy trails!
