Currently, The High Bridge Trail ends at Heights School Road approximately one mile from the town. In a partnership with The Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation, Appomattox and Prince Edward Counties the Town has been able to have trail extended into the corporate limits and end within walking distance to the Main Street business district. This project has been vital to the economic redevelopment and revitalization efforts of the town. Completion of the Pamplin trail extension is expected in Spring 2024.[citation needed]
