The Huckleberry Trail connects the area’s recreational, cultural and historical assets.  The 15-mile paved trail serves as the spine for a 60-mile paved and natural surface trail system that includes the Coal Mining Heritage Park, McDonald Hollow Trail Network, Gateway Trail, Poverty Creek Trail System as well as other local systems. Portions of the Huckleberry Trail follows an old rail alignment and other portions follow the rolling terrain of agricultural fields, passing through Blacksburg, Virginia Tech, Montgomery County and Christiansburg.
