Abingdon

The landscape around Abingdon is defined by wooded ridges and limestone valleys in the Appalachian Mountains, which have shaped both the town’s urban form and local economy. The town is the Washington County seat and a regional centre in southwest Virginia. Its historic core includes the Barter Theatre, founded in 1933 during the Great Depression, when audiences could exchange food and other goods for admission. Abingdon is also the eastern trailhead of the Virginia Creeper Trail, a rail-trail following a former railroad corridor toward Whitetop Station.
