Twin Lakes State Park

Sometimes we want to hike in the woods, but don’t want to drive 2+ hours. Sometimes we don’t want to get up early. This is a series of hikes that are not too far and not too close; not too long and not too short. We call them ‘Modest Ambles’. Let’s explore these all year and keep in practice.

For this hike, we’ll explore the double loop trail around Twin Lakes. 25 minutes away are Nottoway Falls where we can go cool off on the rocks and dip in the warm waters from the reservoir.

The return time is approximate. If you have plans that require you to be back in Richmond at a specific time, please communicate this prior to carpooling with someone, or consider choosing a different hike.

Since these are shorter hikes let’s combine them with visits to local wineries for tastings and bon vivanterie.  Unfortunately there are no new wineries I could locate close by, but Triple Cross Distillery is 25 minutes away on the ride back.
