Participate in the Adventure Series and win cool prizes

Kicking off its fifth year in action, the Virginia State Park Adventure Series presented by Appalachian Power launches March 19, 2022. With 22 races this year that consist of bike races, adventure races, and runs from 5k’s to ½ marathons and triathlons, participants will compete for cool prizes while visiting the various state park locations. 

“These events provide an opportunity for you to show off your outdoor skills while competing for top prizes and bragging rights. We encourage you to check out the various trails, bike paths and scenic waterways to partake in your next outdoor adventure,” Virginia State Parks Director Dr. Melissa Baker said.
