More About City of Norton

The City of Norton is the smallest incorporated city in Virginia. Nestled beneath High Knob – the highest point in the Cumberland Mountains – Norton is centrally located between two main highways – U.S. 23 and U.S. Route 58 Alternate – and near the crossroads of Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee. 

The city’s Flag Rock Recreation Area is three miles above Downtown Norton. The thousand-acre park’s outdoor recreation offerings include fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and rock climbing. Norton’s Upper Reservoir is a state-stocked fishery and its Flag Rock Area Trails system is open to mountain biking and foot traffic. At 3,250 feet in elevation, Flag Rock Overlook offers views of Downtown Norton and surrounding mountains. The popular Woodbooger statue is located near the overlook. The park also connects to the Jefferson National Forest. 

Downtown Norton offers a variety of unique restaurants and shops and is within a few miles of Country Cabin II, a Crooked Road venue, and the Central Drive-In Movie Theatre.
