Goochland County Location Map Virginia

Goochland County lies just west of Richmond, a place with a bit of upscale living. The James River forms its southern border.

Horses are popular here. The county is known for its equestrian facilities and events. Despite development, much of Goochland remains agricultural.

Maidens Landing is a popular spot for launching kayaks and canoes. Wineries and farm-to-table restaurants celebrate local flavors. It’s close enough to the city for commuters but feels a world away.
