What's the Difference Between a Greenway and a Blueway?
Did you know we have both a Greenway AND Blueway in Roanoke? We do!

The Roanoke Valley Greenway system has over 30 miles of space spanning all the way from Salem to Botetourt and is used for outdoor recreational activities like walking, biking, rollerblading and skateboarding.

A group of friends and I were walking along the Greenway last week after stopping at Blue Cow Ice Cream
