Henleys Lake is not the only place nearby, Bermbergers Pond is a nearby lake, and Parrott Branch is near Henleys Lake and is always a pleasure to stop by. Going for a hike on the Riprap Trail is always a glorious adventure; camping at Loft Mountain Campgrounds is always a good experience. Meadow Branch Hollow is a delightful site to have a look at close by; if you get bored of Henleys Lake you could also pop by nearby Beaver Creek Reservoir. That right there

| | is a load already, but it carries on; Henleys Lake has it all. There are plenty of folks from Charlottesville here at Henleys Lake; there is a great hiking trail nearby called the Turk Branch Trail. This is no spot for people who don’t like to have a good time. You can never get enough of the pleasant skiing at Wintergreen. If you don’t have a problem getting soaked, you can always go whitewater paddling on Moormans River, and do visit Henleys Dam if you're | |

Charlottesville Reservoir
 | For years I have been fishing the reservoir, the boat ramp is terrible at the twin bridges, and not enough parking at the dam. Several other fisherman including myself would be more than happy to fix the ramp at the bridges free of charge to the city or county if permission is granted. There is much erosion near the edge of the ramp. Backing your boat in the water is dangerous, trying not to go near the eroded bank. Please call me with a response . THANKS.

Beldor Ridge Trail
 | 16 miles away The trail may be fine, but I would avoid venturing too deep into Beldor hollow road. These people have lived here for a very long time, and ''dont take kind to strangers''. Just to give you guys an idea, my father worked as a volunteer fire fighter for the Elkton fire department. They got a call for a fire and took a wrong turn. When they went to turn around they had a car, that was not a car that ran, placed in the middle of the road. Quite a feat. After an altercation with the shotgun wielding locals, they were finally pursuaded that someone could be dying while they werent allowing them out. Finally they moved the car back.
Same for several of the hollows around elkton(pronounced ''hollar'' by the local folk). Beldor, Lynnwood, to a lesser extent thouroughfare area. Also Bryant Hollow can be a little rough if they dont reconize you as well.... |
