Welcome to Glasgow, virginia

You will find us nestled in the mountains

Today, Glasgow is a wonderful small town that offers natural beauty, outdoor activities, and a welcoming community.

Glasgow is a short drive to Natural Bridge State Park and approximately 20 minutes from historic downtown Lexington, Virginia. It spans 1.5 square miles, with roughly 1,100 residents calling Glasgow home.
