Combined with countless local attractions, visitors discover very
quickly just how rewarding living in Halifax County year-round can be.

HCEDC Relocation Guide – Page 4
Wander the seven hiking trails or enjoy camping and picnicking at Medoc Mountain State Park,
site of North Carolina’s first winery. Celebrate and honor the many achievements of current
servicemen and women and veterans at the Roanoke Valley Veterans Museum. Satisfy your
shopping desires at Riverside Mill, the largest gallery of craft art on I-95, with a QVC outlet,
antique mall, and auction house.
It is often said the simple pleasures in life matter the most. In the Roanoke Valley, we could
not agree more. And the wide variety of recreational opportunities available here reflects that
belief. One of the best places to find an array of
water-related activities is Lake Gaston. The lake is 34 miles long with
over 20,000 acres of water surface and 350 miles of shoreline. Lake
Gaston offers you a choice of swimming, wind surfing, water skiing
and other boating activities.
If you prefer fishing, Lake Gaston, Roanoke Rapids Lake, and the
Roanoke River are a fisherman's paradise. Fishing is an option year
round for a variety of species including large-mouth bass, striped bass, and wall-eye. Local
guides are available for tourists and local residents who would like to visit our lakes and river.
The riverfront Town of Weldon is designated as the "Rockfish Capital of the World."
For the explorer in all of us, the Roanoke Canal Trail offers a seven mile walk, stretching from
the Roanoke Rapids Lake Dam to the old corn mill in Weldon. You can spend the afternoon
enjoying a picnic overlooking the aqueduct. Another place to hike or enjoy the afternoon
outdoors is at Medoc Mountain State Park, with over 2,300 acres. The park offers streamside
fishing, hiking, picnicking, group camping, canoeing and nature studies.
The City of Roanoke Rapids has an outstanding parks and recreation program. With 15 tennis
courts and seven multi-purpose athletic fields, the Recreation Department offers numerous
programs in soccer, softball, baseball and most other sports with different leagues for all ages.
There is also an indoor swimming pool and two outdoor pools.
If you like to spend your leisure time golfing, then you will enjoy the
golf courses at Chockoyotte and Scotfield Country Clubs. Both
facilities feature 18-hole golf courses, outdoor swimming pools, and
tennis courts. There are also several public golf courses around Lake
Gaston. For the fitness minded, there are private athletic clubs in the
Roanoke Valley which offers racquetball, aerobics, treadmills,
lifecycles, and more.
The Roanoke Valley is also rich in history and heritage. Today our culture and heritage are
reflected in special events and theater productions held throughout the region. Events such as
Halifax Days, Harvest Days and the annual Haliwa-Saponi Indian Pow Wow attracts visitors to
witness this heritage firsthand. The Lakeland T h e a t r e C o m p a n y in Littleton offers the
opportunity to enjoy the more refined arts. Dinner theater programs are held regularly
throughout the year. It's a wonderful way to relax and enjoy classic theater productions.
Roanoke Rapids is the home of the Roanoke Rapids Theater located at Exit 171 off Interstate 95.
Concerts and other live entertainment venues are scheduled regularly at the 1,500 seat facility.
