Parthenocissus quinquefolia

Virginia creeper or five-leaved ivy (Parthenocissus quinquefolia) is a woody vine native to eastern and central North America, in southeastern Canada, the eastern and central United States, eastern Mexico, and Guatemala, west as far as Manitoba, South Dakota, Utah and Texas.

The Virginia Creeper Trail is a 35-mile (56 km) multi-purpose rail trail in southwestern Virginia. It runs from Abingdon to the North Carolina state line near Whitetop, Virginia. Over 200,000 people a year use this trail. Most take the 17-mile (27 km) downhill ride from Whitetop to Damascus, Virginia, which is mostly in National Forest land, following Laurel Creek. The trip from Abingdon to Damascus goes through rolling farm country.
