About
Devils Marbleyard is wonderland of quartzite boulders jumbled precariously across the side of a mountain. Turn around as you climb the rocks for a sweeping views of the Arnold Valley far below. The creek-crossing Belfast Trail passes the marbleyard on its three-mile climb to the Appalachian Trail in the James River Face Wilderness. The trailhead is just a few miles from Natural Bridge State Park
