Chestnut Ridge Overlook — photo spot in Roanoke, VA 24014, USA
Chestnut Ridge Overlook
Wide panoramic overlook above the Roanoke Valley framing layered Blue Ridge ridgelines, seasonal foliage and city lights below. Best at sunrise or sunset for layered light and during fall for color; clear mornings can bring valley fog. Easy drive with a small roadside parking area and short walk to the viewpoint; no entry fee. Weekdays and early mornings avoid crowds. Accessible viewpoints but bring a tripod for low-light work.
