New River State Park
Dedicated as a National Scenic River in 1976, this gentle river is the centerpiece of New River State Park.
The New River area still maintains an old-fashioned charm. Mountain roads are narrow and winding, dotted with small farms, churches and country stores. The river itself is tranquil, offering good bass fishing, trout streams, excellent birding and inspiring mountain scenery. But perhaps the best way to absorb and appreciate the river's peacefulness is from the seat of a canoe as it glides across the slow-moving waters, which can be accessed through the Alleghany Country entry point just miles from Roaring Gap.
Cultural Attractions
The Blue Ridge Music Center and Rex Theater in Galax, along with the Alleghany Jubilee in Sparta are popular local destinations for live music. Nearby towns Mt. Airy, Sparta and Elkin are also hot spots for the arts – giving visitors an opportunity to immerse themselves in the unique culture of the North Carolina Mountains.
