VISION, GUIDING PRINCIPLES & MASTER PLAN
VISION STATEMENT
From the Tower of Virginia’s High Knob to the Natural Tunnel State Park, from our Horse Park along the Clinch, to the Spearhead Trails along the Powell, this region is an amazing collection of all of the Best of Southwest Virginia. We are the home of Virginia’s Official Outdoor Drama, classic drive-in movies, old times jam sessions, hundreds of miles of trails, unmatched bio-diversity and a warmth that can only be found nestled in these hills.
We are a collection of hometowns in the shadow of High Knob, connected not through identity, but through the similarity of our challenges. In the past, we have felt abandoned, ignored, and overlooked.
But opportunity has knocked, and we have proudly answered. And we have realized we don’t just share challenges, but a core set of values. We are loyal, hardworking, and deeply connected to this land.
These scenic surroundings are our home and our future. They are the place where we relax. They are the place where we exhale. This is the place that we are the most comfortable. And we would like to invite others to experience this amazing place. Relax, slow down, get out, and be transformed.
Explore the nation’s first frontier, the place where the wilderness began, the high point of the Cumberlands.
Whether you love riding, hiking,
floating, paddling, racing, cruising, or pickin’, you owe it to yourself to discover this place we call ...
High Knob. Virginia’s Backyard.
