Ecothusiast Adventures

Get Back to Nature at Virginia State Parks, voted "America's Best." Enjoy hiking, biking, fishing and wildlife watching this time of year. Give each of the kids their own disposable camera to document their adventure.

If you and your family love creature-seeking, you'll enjoy adventuring about Virginia's nature centers, zoos and Natural Area Preserves. Meet aquatic life at indoor aquariums, touch pools and in interactive living exhibits!

Children thrill to visit the eerie worlds created by dripstone stalactites and stalagmites in Virginia's Caverns. Did you know that some of the caverns were discovered by curious children and their dogs?

Rainbow Chaser's Paradise

This is a great time to enjoy one of Virginia's Beaches. The water might give a refreshing tingle, but you can play beach volleyball, build sand castles, go fishing off a pier and sunbathe! Of course, many hotels offer heated pools so the kids can still get in their waterplay.

This is the most beautiful time of year for a hot-air balloon ride. Choose the northern Shenandoah Valley, farther south toward Roanoake, or Charlottesville in Central Virginia. Cool mornings, gentle breezes and spectacular spring blossoms you can pick from the trees make it a memorable experience!
