The Glenora Trail is a 1.1 mile, easy trail, that is the southern extension of the Sawtooth Trail. The trail is also accessible from the Big Woods Trail. This multi-use trail passes through majestic hardwood forest of oak and maple alongside green meadows with views of Lake Anna. The Glenora Trail leads to a site once known as Pigeon Plantation, a 3,000 acre enterprise named for Pigeon Run, a small stream that bordered the property. The estate was named Glenora following the Civil War and was a popular place for wealthy Southern aristocrats to gather and socialize. The original smokehouse built in 1832 remains on the site. The trail continues south until it reaches the lake.
The Glenora Trail is a 1.1-mile easy hiking path located in Lake Anna State Park, featuring an elevation gain of 81.37 feet and connecting to both the Sawtooth and Big Woods trails. This historic route passes through mature hardwood forest and meadows, leading visitors to the preserved 1832 smokehouse of the former Pigeon Plantation, now known as Glenora estate, before culminating at scenic Lake Anna.
