This review is from: 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Richmond: Including Petersburg, Williamsburg, and Fredericksburg (Paperback)
We love this book and have completed several hikes so far. It is also useful for finding bike trails. The info we have used has been accurate and complete. Good details included, like whether hunting is allowed on or around the trails (important in rural area during certain times of the year). Two thumbs up!

This review is from: 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Richmond: Including Petersburg, Williamsburg, and Fredericksburg (Paperback)
Although I have found mistakes on a couple of the trail maps contained in this book, it's extremely useful for finding actual hiking trails in central Virginia.
