Outdoors
Outdoor living is no strange concept to the people of Virginia’s New River Valley. Rich in natural resources, outdoor activities, and breathtaking views, the NRV is a constant source of entertainment for adrenaline junkies and leisure-seekers alike.

Arts & Culture
The New River Valley community members fervently value arts & culture more than one might expect. The presence of a major research university creates a culture of sophistication that values education and the arts while retaining our small-town charm. It also brings a large international population who impart a myriad of cultures to create a unique and diverse community that we love. Learn more about how you can experience our distinctive home below. Read more
Food & Drink
It’s not hard to find what you’re looking for when it comes to food in the New River Valley. We may be a collection of small towns, but the sophistication of restaurants, wineries, and breweries in our region is anything but small. Hungry? Stop by The Blue Door Café at “The Merc” and get a meal from Hell’s Kitchen Finalist Chef T. Thirsty? Head to Red Rooster Coffee or Radford Coffee Co. for an amazing afternoon pick-me-up. Read more
Sports & Rec
Sports in Virginia’s New River Valley are not to be taken lightly. Saturdays in Autumn are spent in Blacksburg, fiercely cheering on the Virginia Tech Hokies on the football field. But Maroon and Orange aren’t the only colors you’ll see on game days. Head over to Pulaski and you’ll be cheering for the Pulaski Yankees or head to Radford to see the RU Highlanders in action. Whatever sport you like watch or play, you’ll find it here in the NRV. Read more
