Meh Te Kos Challenge Trail – York River State Park is just 30 minutes from Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. The 1.5-mile trail is the park’s most difficult trail. Its trailhead is on York River Park Road and can be accessed by following the Meh Te Kos Trail past some power lines. The trail proceeds through the forest, traversing fairly difficult terrain, and loops back to the trailhead. A few steps away, those looking for more may add the moderate 2.7-mile Taskinas Creek Loop Trail.
Cape Henry Trail – In the heart of urban Virginia Beach, First Landing State Park is a 2,888-acre oasis of cypress swamps, undisturbed natural areas and sandy beaches. Rich in history and Virginia’s most-visited state park, First Landing has 10 trails covering about 20 miles, including bike and fitness trails. Cape Henry Trail is 10.1 miles out-and-back and wide and flat. It’s ideal for bikers, hikers and those hoping to view eagles, turtles, snakes, frogs and other wildlife. Insect repellent is recommended.
