HANOVER, Va. (WWBT) - Folks looking for a new trail to explore can head over to Hanover’s Fall Line trail.

County leaders, regional and state partners gathered in Ashland on Wednesday afternoon to celebrate the opening of the 4.8-mile section of the trail.

The new section connects the Ashland Trolley Line Trail in Hanover County to Woodman Road in Henrico County. It marks the completion of the trail’s first regional segment.

Officials say when it’s finished, the trail will span 43 miles across seven localities.

“The completion of this northern segment highlights the true regional nature of the trail, stretching from Ashland and Hanover into Henrico, with a bridge over the wild and wonderful Chickahominy River,” Roscoe D. Cooper III, Henrico County Board of Supervisors Vice Chair, said.
