Tucked into Virginia’s New River Valley amid the Appalachian highlands, Pulaski is a place whose character is shaped by Peak Creek and the wooded ridges around it. The creek runs through town before joining the New River, the principal waterway of this corner of southwest Virginia. Pulaski is the county seat of Pulaski County and takes its name from Casimir Pulaski, the Polish-born military officer who fought in the American Revolution. Claytor Lake, created on the New River, lies nearby and extends the valley’s connection with the water. The compact downtown keeps civic life close to the surrounding river country.
