Virginia's west is dominated by the Blue Ridge Highlands and the Heart of Appalachia. Ruggedly beautiful, full of dramatic scenery and wonderful people there is a lot to see and enjoy. Traversed by the Blue Ridge Parkway and easily accessed by Interstate 81, travel is easy and convenient.

Wise, in the far west is the festival capital in Southwest Virginia and the region is proud to be called the safest place on earth. The calendar is full of fun festivals and the Crooked Road: Virginia's Heritage Music Trail – a newly mapped route to the areas outstanding music venues.

Festival season begins the end of May with the Gathering in the Gap in Big Stone Gap. This music festival celebrates the old time and bluegrass music of Virginia. The schedule includes competitions, jams, local performers and culminates with professional entertainment. Other May options include the Pound Heritage Days and Coeburn's Hills of Home Festival – both terrific music showcases in the region.

June brings the week long Virginia-Kentucky District Fair and Horse Show at the Fairgrounds in Wise. In its 96th year, this year will be better than ever. Load up the family and come out to the Fair Grounds. The schedule includes kids days, the demolition derby, concerts with top notch headliners, the Miss VA-KY Scholarship Pageant and all the trappings of a great Fair. This will be a highlight of the summer.

The Virginia Highlands Festival, is a summer highlight for the region. Named one of America's top 100 events as well as one of the top 20 events in the southeast, plan on attending this year starting on July 24th. The community of Abingdon comes together to present a week filled with events, exhibits, seminars, sports and activities – literally just about anything fun and entertaining you can imagine. Shop the antiques market, enter a 10K, enjoy live music and bring the family for the parade. For over 60 years this festival has flourished and will be better than ever.

Roanoke,off Interstate 81, is the eastern gateway to the region and offers world class urban experiences, with the charm of a small town. Hollins University's Eleanor D Wilson Museum hosts a moving exhibit, through mid-April. “When Janey Comes Marching Home: Portraits of Women Combat Veterans” honors the special women of the Nation that have fought for the freedoms we enjoy – a nice way to support the women in our troops.
