The Shenandoah River, which runs right through Front Royal, is another great place for recreation. In fact, Front Royal is such a great spot for a river trip, that we’ve earned the title: Canoe Capital of Virginia. Plan your river trip for a relaxing and rejuvenating day in a stunning setting. 

Take it Slow around Town
​
A weekend packed with outdoor adventure doesn’t leave everybody energized, though. Some of us need to take life at a slower place to really feel rejuvenated after a trip. There couldn’t be a better place to take a break in the slow lane than Front Royal. With a downtown area filled with unique shops, art studios, and delightful cafés, there’s plenty to satisfy the lover of the slower pace. Enjoying a picnic at a winery, or planning a gentle stroll by the iconic Shenandoah river are other great ways to slow down and take a deep breath in the Front Royal area.

The list goes on, with Italian, Mexican, Pizza, Thai, and much more. No matter your taste, you’ll find what you love in Front Royal!
