Westmoreland State Park is a 1,311-acre protected area that stretches for 1.5 miles along the Potomac River on the Northern Neck Peninsula, near Montross in Westmoreland County, Virginia.
The Horsehead Cliffs are the best spot for fantastic views of the river, which is 6 miles wide at this point. The lush secluded park offers seven hiking trails covering 6 miles, excellent fishing with boat ramps for fishermen, camping, lodging in 26 rustic cabins, and swimming both on the river beach and in the park’s pool.
Westmoreland State Park was established in 1936 and is one of the six state parks built by the Civilian Conservation Corps.
Close to the park is Stratford Hall, the birthplace of Robert E. Lee as well as the birthplace of George Washington.
