Recommendations for your stay in Wintergreen...
Activities on the Mountain
Welcome to Wintergreen Virginia. We sincerely hope you enjoy your time here as much as our family does. We find the majesty of the mountains the perfect retreat from the demands of everyday life, and the gift of nature a tonic for any weary soul.
If you are more inclined to an active and adventurous vacation, there are an abundance of adult and family activities available for you. Enjoy a morning hike, a round of golf, or take the kids to Discovery Ridge for a few hours of adventures. And in the wintertime, of course, there’s always the skiing.
If you are looking to relax, book an appointment at the Wintergreen Spa, head to one of the two pools available for your use on the mountain and in the valley.
Wintergreen is a four season retreat in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.

Whether you take on Humpback Rocks as a 4.3-mile loop or a 2.0-mile out-and-back hike, you’re guaranteed to be stunned by 360-degree views at the jagged summit.
The ascent to the top is not for the faint of heart, but thankfully a handful of benches and a wooden staircase ease the trek to the very top where vistas are plentiful.
On the way down, re-trace your steps or follow along a leafy stretch of white-blazed Appalachian Trail to make your return to the Humpback Gap Overlook parking area.

The 3.8-mile hike on the Jack Albright Loop (also known as Dobie Mountain) shares a parking lot with the above Humpback Rocks hike. This means plan to arrive early. The Glass Hollow Overlook at the 1.0-mile mark (counter-clockwise route) is not to be missed for overwhelmingly beautiful panoramas of the Rockfish Valley.

The short and sweet Dripping Rock South hike originates across the Blue Ridge Parkway from the Dripping Rock parking area (more a pull-out than a parking lot).
The 2.8-mile out-and-back hike guides you along a forested southbound section of the Appalachian Trail. Along the way, you’ll be wowed by two scenic overlooks.
The first overlook appears at the .5-mile mark, while the second overlook arrives at the 1.4-mile mark and serves as the turn-around point for this hike.
