Floyd Mountain

Floyd Mountain is a summit in Virginia's George Washington and Jefferson National Forest, within the Glenwood and Pedlar Ranger Districts. The Appalachian National Scenic Trail also passes through the area. Buchanan, about 7.6 miles away, is the nearest town. The Glenwood and Pedlar Ranger Districts carried a district-wide information alert as of October 2026. It concerns prohibitions on the James River Footbridge on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail. Because the alert covers the whole district and can change, confirm current status before you go. The Cornelius Creek Trail (blue) is about 1.2 miles away, and the Glenwood Horse Trail is about 1.4 miles away. Jennings Creek offers canoeing roughly 3.3 miles off, and North Creek campground sits at about the same distance.
