Our Location
The Piedmont Triad Visitor Center is just off Highway 29 north of Reidsville, NC and just south of Danville, VA. Positioned in between the mountains and the beach, we are an hours drive from both the Triangle and the Triad. More specifically, we are:
Approximately 45 miles from Greensboro, NC
Approximately 225 miles from Asheville, NC
Approximately 135 miles from Charlotte, NC
Located in Caswell County, deeply rooted in agriculture, the rolling hills you see as you travel on and off the exit are dotted by small farms. This sector continues to transition from the once dominant crop of tobacco to more specialized crops that include vegetable and fruit production, pasture raised eggs and grass fed beef.
