While planning a road trip inspires grand dreams of driving coast to coast or down or up one side of the country, you don’t need to travel thousands of miles in order to enjoy a road trip. In fact, planning a smaller-scale road trip, like one focusing on just one state, can prove even more enjoyable and easier to accomplish within a shorter amount of time.

For example, consider taking a road trip through Virginia. Over the course of a few days or a week, you can explore the state’s ample history, outdoor attractions and fantastic food and beverage scene. You have plenty of options for stops along the way, including:
Richmond, Virginia
The capital city offers an amazing dining scene, so be sure to come hungry. The city is also a great spot for road-tripping families, with its wealth of family-friendly museums.

Williamsburg, Virginia
For a dose of history, visit Colonial Williamsburg, but then get out in nature with a trip to Shenandoah National Park.
Virginia Beach
Don’t forget Virginia’s beautiful shoreline. Enjoy Virginia Beach’s lively waterfront and boardwalk, as well as its craft beer scene.
