"Hard to believe that this is only 10 minutes from our house. We got out on the river after work today for a 2 hour paddle. It's a great way to unwind. " -Barbara Parker, Martinsville

About Us
Looking for something fun to do? This is the place to find it. The Rivers & Trails Journal is your guide to enjoying the many recreational areas of the Dan River basin.
The Dan River Basin Association's (DRBA) Martinsville-Henry County Rivers and Trails Group consists of local volunteers who are establishing recreational trails and river access points in our section of Southern Virginia. Our mission is to protect, promote, and enhance the natural and historical resources of Martinsville and Henry County through environmental education, recreational activities and tourism, and land conservation and revitalization. Our work has been made possible through the generosity of the Harvest Foundation, which has provided funding for staff and operations in Martinsville and Henry County. To learn more about the group and its projects, contact us at 276-634-2545 or drba.va@danriver.org
