Pearisburg blends small-town ease with big-mountain views, giving residents a daily dose of the outdoors without sacrificing everyday conveniences. As the seat of Giles County, it anchors a network of friendly communities, with trailheads minutes from downtown and arts, dining, and major employers a short drive away in Blacksburg and Christiansburg.
Weekend plans come easily. Hikers tap into the famed Appalachian Trail Conservancy corridor that skirts town, while paddlers and anglers drift along the New River Water Trail, celebrated for its scenery and smallmouth bass. Local history lives on at the Giles County Historical Society and its Andrew Johnston House museum, and community events, markets, and youth sports keep the calendar full. Town services are responsive and easy to navigate through the Town of Pearisburg, and everyday errands are simplified by nearby shops and staples in both Pearisburg and neighboring Narrows.
Families appreciate the stability of Giles County Public Schools, with strong community support for programs at Giles High School and Macy McClaugherty Elementary-Middle. Health needs are covered close to home at Carilion Giles Community Hospital, and higher education and cultural energy thrive just down the road at Virginia Tech.
