Views View Edit History. Madison's Temple. Far right: The South Yard slave dwellings and work buildings. A view of the Blue Ridge Mountains from James Madison's upstairs library, where he spent months studying ancient and modern republics in preparation for the Philadelphia Convention. Montpelier's eight-plus miles of well-marked walking trails are one of the Virginia Piedmont's best-kept secrets. Winding through horse pastures, wildflower meadows, and forests—including the acre old-growth Landmark Forest—the trails offer spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and intimate encounters with native plants and wildlife.
Montpelier offers a number of seasonal walking tours, including the interpreter-led "We the People" trail walk on the 3. Montpelier's walking trails are free and open to the public. When we visit the historic places that once belonged to some of history's most renowned leaders, we might not expect to learn much about the enslaved communities who lived there.
But more and more, historic sites are bringing enslaved people into focus. Have a story idea that might be interesting and engaging for a national audience?
