The festival is taking place at the Sky Meadows State Park .

Delaplane Strawberry Festival

With things on the agenda like children’s games, live entertainment, hayrides, crafts, puppet shows and raffles, you don’t want to miss out. Oh, and I better not forget the National Strawberry Eating Championship offering an amatuer and professional round. View the full list of activities on their website.

Hopefully we’ll come home with some good pictures, videos, and maybe a story or two. The weather for the weekend looks good during the days so it should be a great time.

It’s a bit pricey in my opinion to get in – $20 per car for a one day pass (it runs Saturday and Sunday) – so it better be worth it and not rain! Get the full low down on the festival at the Delaplane Strawberry Festival website!

1. Bull Run Mountain Conservancy area

2. Raven Rocks
3. Buzzard Hill

4. Sky Meadows

Some of these have been posted about here on Virginia Hiker, but I have yet to get out on them and hopefully that will happen before May!

Have you been to any of these trails? Are they as good as they sound?
