アルベマール郡周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

A very imposing gravestone. It's the largest of all in the entire cemetery. The cemetery is completely fenced in. You can only pass by on one side.

A very beautiful old building. It's a masterpiece and historically very interesting. Many information panels are located beneath the building. Access to the building is only possible with a guided tour.

It's very impressive how visionary Jefferson was many hundreds of years ago.

Beautiful waterfall set in a natural amphitheater along the Jones Run Trail.

Sitting on the border of Ivy Creek and South Fork Rivanna River, this is a natural area owned by Albermarle County and Charlottesville, providing a home for diverse wildlife, along with a recreation area for visitors with miles of hiking trails through the woodland. The area is managed by the Ivy Creek Foundation, which offers education programs all year. For more information, check ivycreekfoundation.org

Mount Jefferson stands at 258m. The beautiful winding road up the hill is lined with trees. At the top of Mount Jefferson you will find the Leander McCormick Observatory. Mount Jefferson is named after Thomas Jefferson who was the 3rd president of the USA and authored the Declaration of Independence.

You reach the other side of the Doyles River via large stepping stones. Well, with very little water because of the summer on July 31, 24, that wasn't really a challenge 😉

A small but challenging bit further from the Upper Doyles River Falls is a slightly higher waterfall; the Lower Falls River Falls. This has a fall height of 63' or 18.9 m, but on July 31, 24 there is very little water through the river and this waterfall is less spectacular.
