Rent bikes at The Outdoor Adventure Store in town and enjoy a flat 4 mile bike ride out to the historic High Bridge. Not up for biking, park at Paradise Camp in Rice, VA and walk the half mile out to enjoy the scenic views of the Appomattox River from the High Bridge. ... if you are feeling adventurous, bring your horses for a ride across the bridge!
History buff? Drive out to Appomattox Court House National Park and stand where Meredith's Great-Great-Grandfather, Edward Jackson Gregory, and his brother, Cass Gregory laid down arms as part of the Surrender. Ask to see the Parole Logs and you will find these two brothers listed.
