How to get to Kempers Run, Virginia

No site in VDWR's access file falls on Kempers Run, so the way in is public ground and road crossings rather than a marked landing. 1 block of public land fronts Kempers Run, and 1.5 of its 3.4 mapped miles run through it. The nearest town we map is Roanoke, 28.1 miles from the river's midpoint in a straight line, with the water north of the town.

Straight-line distance from the river's midpoint, and the direction you would travel from the town to reach it. The roads are not mapped here, so there is no drive time — a travel time nobody measured is the kind of number that gets somebody lost.

Public land on the water

Ownership from PAD-US as the state publishes it. Where a block has its own page, the name links to it. The river miles are how far this river's drawn axis runs inside each block, measured here; the acreage is the whole unit's, most of which is nowhere near this water.
