The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was a program initiated in the 1930s under President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal to provide employment opportunities for young men during the Great Depression. The CCC Legacy in Edinburg, VA is a testament to the lasting impact of this program.

The CCC Legacy in Edinburg, VA is a 1,200-acre tract of land that was once used for forestry and agricultural purposes. The land was purchased by the CCC in the 1930s and transformed into a training camp for young men who were employed to carry out conservation projects in the Shenandoah Valley.

During the CCC's operation, the young men worked on a variety of projects that included reforestation, erosion control, and the construction of recreational facilities. Many of the structures that were built during this time, such as the Edinburg Fire Tower and the Edinburg Gap Trail, still stand today and serve as a testament to the CCC's lasting legacy.

The CCC Legacy in Edinburg, VA is now a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts who come to enjoy the natural beauty of the Shenandoah Valley.
