We’re thrilled to announce the Appalachian Trail Festival’s return. It’s back, and it’s better!
The Appalachian Trail is a 2,190-mile footpath, spanning over 14 states. We in Western Loudoun are fortunate. We have this breathtaking beauty right in our backyard.
In 2019, we celebrated a special event. It was Round Hill’s official recognition as an A.T. Community. Today, we have more exciting news. We’re bringing the festival back in 2024. But this time, we’re growing and collaborating with Hillsboro and Bluemont. Together, we’ll host the festival at The Gap Stage and Old Stone School in Hillsboro, VA.
So, clear your schedules on June 8th. Join us in celebrating the Great Outdoors and the A.T. in its entirety.
The festival this year is bigger and better. It’s packed with activities, performances, exhibitions, and enlightening talks. So, whether you’re an avid hiker, a nature lover, an outdoor enthusiast, or someone looking for a fun, community event, the festival is the place to be. Come and join us in celebrating the Appalachian Trail and the Great Outdoors!
For more information, check out the festival website.
See you there!

Are you looking for inspiration? Perhaps you’ll find it in the artists of all ages who submitted their work to the 7th Annual Round Hill Appalachian Trail Art Show.
You might be wondering, why does Round Hill have an A.T. art show in the first place? Well, since Round Hill became an official A.T. Community, we’re committed to promoting and protecting the A.T. and all the other beautiful green spaces that surround our town. One way we do this is by helping people see the beauty of nature.
And let me tell you, the wealth of talent and creativity among our local artists is truly remarkable. They’ve captured the beauty of the A.T. and the wild nature all around us in their stunning works. Every year, the show keeps getting better, and we’re proud to showcase the amazing talent in our community.
You can see this year’s art show in person at the Round Hill Arts Center from February 3rd to March 10th, or you can view entries in the online gallery on our website. And if you’re feeling inspired, why not participate in our “People’s Choice” competition? Visit the Arts Center or go online to select up to five works that you think best capture the spirit of the Appalachian Trail and the beauties of nature.
So what makes you want to “get outside”? Is it the feeling of the sun on your face, the smell of fresh pine, or the sound of a babbling brook? Whatever it may be, we hope this show will help you connect with nature and find your inspiration.
