Nestled in rural southwestern Virginia, the town of Abingdon offers abundant travel value. Boasting a regional music heritage, a multi-use nature trail and a food and theater scene going back to the Great Depression, this tiny destination has quietly been punching above its tourism weight for years. It’s also home to several active history venues, adding an extra layer of Appalachian authenticity during the winter holidays.
