North Bedford
Otter Creek Campground and
Trail is in the far north of Bedford, 23 miles northeast of the town. There are
numerous trails to explore with your pet here that are part of the 369
miles of hiking trails along the picturesque Blue Ridge Parkway. You can stay a night or two in the
campground with your dog, so why not make a weekend of it? It is a lovely spot,
but rather remote and rugged, so pack and dress accordingly. The Otter
Creek Trail is one of the hikes here, taking you 3.5 miles from the campground
to the James River Visitor’s Centre. For a shorter walk, take the one-mile
Otter Lake Loop Trail or the 0.4-mile Trail of Trees that both extend from the
Visitor’s Centre. The 0.4-mile Canal Lock Trail is another pleasant, easy walk
that takes over a bridge to the old Battery Creek Lock.
