Rocky Gap

Rocky Gap has served as a rural crossroads in southwestern Virginia since the nineteenth century. The community lies in Bland County among the folded ridges of the Appalachian Mountains, near East River Mountain and the Virginia–West Virginia line. U.S. Route 52 runs through Rocky Gap, linking local valleys with Bluefield and communities farther south. Bland County, created in 1861, remains sparsely settled, and the terrain gives this small settlement a distinctly upland character. Forested slopes, working roads and dispersed homes define the setting more than a conventional town centre. Browse nearby webcams to discover more of Rocky Gap and Virginia’s Appalachian highlands.
