Welcome to the Alleghany Highlands Chamber of Commerce!
Let us invite you to Virginia's Western Highlands, a lush mountain playground situated at the southern tip of the Shenandoah Valley and west of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Railroad buffs, history hobbyists, outdoor sports enthusiasts, antique shoppers and arts and crafts lovers will find something of interest in Virginia's Western Highlands.
Virginia's Western Highlands offers many pleasures for the discerning traveler,and incomparable natural beauty during each of the four seasons. From glimmering snow on the mountain tops in January - to the first explosion of roadside wildflowers and redbud trees in April - to mountains ablaze with a riot of color in October - you will marvel as memories of the past are revealed and memories for the future are created.
