The Historic Lansing Walking Trail is a short, paved path that follows Big Horse Creek, starting near the Lansing Fire Department. At the end, the trail loops around, with the creek on one side and a colorful mural of historic Lansing on the other. Along the way, you can see remains of the old Virginia Creeper railroad line that once ran through Lansing.
The easiest place to park is in the small lot next to the fire department. If that lot is full, you can park at Lansing Creeper Trail Park and walk through downtown toward the fire department to reach the trailhead.
