Walking. Whether you prefer a casual stroll or a spirited hike, it’s easy to keep moving at Covenant Woods. With beautiful, wooded trails and paved walking paths, it’s never been easier to get out in the open air and experience the beauty of land and sky through the changing seasons.
Try it once. You’ll be hooked.
Did you know more people in the United States fish than play golf and tennis combined? Fishing is not only a great way to connect with nature, but also a way to bond with friends and family members and create new memories. Whether you’re looking for some quiet time alone to reflect or you want to see the look on your grandchild’s face when landing that first lunker, going fishing at Covenant Woods is as easy as heading over to our own private catch-and-release fishing pond with floating marshlands
Gather in the great outdoors.
The Spring is a small pond with two bridges spanning a small creek bed. Home to a family of ducks, The Spring welcomes guests and residents with a fountain, native plants, and trees, and was designed in part by Virginia Tech landscape architecture students, with an eye toward creating a therapeutic landscape that appeals to older adults. The Spring has been designated an official Virginia Treasure by the Commonwealth.
The Pergola offers a shady, on-campus respite with comfortable seating shielded from the sun.
The Grand Lawn, situated just outside The Lodge, is a space where residents enjoy social hours and events. During the winter holidays, The Grand Lawn is beautifully decorated with festive lights and Christmas trees.
