On Sunday we ran an article about waterfall/swimming hole combinations in the state. It’s part of the “10 Things to Do This Summer” series that Paul Woody and I have been collaborating on. Click here and scroll down the right side of the page to find the other articles in the series.

Here are links to maps and directions to each and every place mentioned in the article. Many of the links are courtesy of the invaluable Website, http://www.swimmingholes.org and Kevin Adams’ book, Waterfalls of Virginia and West Virginia.

The Falls of the Nottoway River: Directions: Go west on US-460 from Petersburg about 40 miles to the town of Crewe. Take SR-49 south. Drive nine miles to a bridge over the Nottoway. Look downstream to see the top of the falls, then continue .2 miles and turn right on the gravel road leading to the river and the large parking area. From the parking area, work your way downstream to the path leading to the falls.
