Beginning on Three Chopt Road, originally a Native American trail and later a major east-west route across central Virginia, follow in the footsteps of the indigenous peoples of the Powhatan Confederacy and Monacan Nation as well as Cornwallis, Washington, and Lee.

On Thursday, stroll through tree-covered winding lanes to explore homes from grand and stately to quaint and intimate. Each is unique with antiques, important collections, artwork from renowned artists, detached studios and garden retreats.
