WELCOME TO CULPEPER, VIRGINIA, located in one of the most picturesque, historic and friendly regions of Virginia. Midway between the Washington DC skyline and Skyline Drive, Mount Vernon and Monticello, Bull Run and Appomattox, the Blue Ridge Mountains and the deep blue Atlantic, Culpeper surrounds you with its natural beauty, rich history ... and, of course, southern hospitality.
THE TOWN ... Discover the unique Town of Culpeper -- as alive and charming as ever. A drive down Main Street is like a drive through history, where everything from Victorian mansions to a 1950's style drive-in diner still has their place in the town's 21st century life. Explore our intimate
Historic District, including Davis and East Streets, where you'll find music and book stores, antique and vintage furniture stores, coffee shops and a wine shop, quiet or exciting restaurants, and historic neighborhoods dating to the early 1800's.
...AND COUNTY ... Escape to the peace and tranquility of Culpeper. It's a great way to see the countryside and the mountains of Virginia. Nestled in the Piedmont river valley between the Rappahannock and Rapidan Rivers, Culpeper remains a vibrant recollection of the agrarian culture and society from Colonial times through the Civil War and beyond. The range of
scenic driving and
biking circuits is virtually unlimited in all directions. You can spend days exploring this abundant country, where nearby mountains form the backdrop to miles of croplands, orchards and grazing livestock.
Hiking in the nearby Blue Ridge Mountains can be paired with visits to
wineries, craft and antique
stores, "pick-your-own" fruit and vegetable farms, and the secluded country inns and restaurants that complement the countryside's villages and hamlets.
...HOSPITALITY Experience our scenic beauty and southern hospitality. We have cozy
Bed and Breakfasts, excellent
dining establishments and an unbeatable array of
stores. But it's our way of life here in Culpeper that makes us just a little more friendly and a little more welcoming to our guests. Join us for a day or your next tour of Virginia. And see for yourself what Culpeper is all about!
