This walk takes you through the town of Farmville, home of Longwood University. The route is on paved surface except for some sections on the High Bridge Trail, which has a packed gravel surface. You will pass a clock tower,, a LOVEworks statue, and a Little Free Library on both trails. Most of the trail is in Prince Edward County, but both trails include 1.5 kilometers in Cumberland County.
