Hidden valley is a great place for a hike. The trail we took straddles the Jackson River, which is one of the headwaters of the James River. We hiked it in late afternoon; the weather was cold (it snowed in Monterrey), most of the trees had lost their leaves, with the exception of the red oaks. The trail is great; it is an easy walk with the exception of crossing the suspension bridge over the river with dogs. one of our dogs freaked out when the bridge moved.
Bath County is famous for the small towns of Warm Springs and Hot Springs, which are aptly named after the springs (and associated bath houses) found in the area. Unlike Highland County, which seems depressed, Bath County is opulent, with resorts and a wonderful restaurant in Warm Springs that is part of the Grist Mill. Hidden Valley also has a wonderful looking B&B associated with it.
Attached are a few photos from our trip to Warm Springs and Hidden Valley.
