Reservoir Hollow Trail is a lovely trail you can hike either down from the East Midland Trail Road or up from the town of Buena Vista. The trail is generally pretty gradual and there are nice views and several stream crossings. Because of these streams, it can be a little muddy and buggy at times, so be sure to wear proper footwear and bring bug spray! You can also take a spur trail off of Reservoir Hollow Trail up to Elephant Mountain or up to the Blue Ridge Parkway.

The Jordan's Point Historic District is located in Jordan's Point Park in Lexington, Virginia. Developed around 1800 by John Jordan and John Moorhead, the site originally housed a sawmill. In 1806, they dammed the Maury River and constructed a cotton mill in 1808. Although only foundations and the millrace remain from these early industrial activities, notable surviving structures include the miller's house, built around 1815, which is now a local museum, and a chapel built in 1874. The district's historical significance was recognized in 2016 when it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Chessie Nature Trail is a relatively flat, gravel and dirt multi-use path that runs between Lexington and Buena Vista, Virginia, along the Maury River. Although there are several access points along this seven mile trail, there are no facilities, so plan accordingly. Hikers, runners, cyclists, and dog walkers are all welcome on the trail, but dogs must be leashed at all times, especially because the trail passes through private lands and active cattle farms.
