When you land
Things to do in Roanoke
Roanoke is the largest city in western Virginia and grew up as a railroad town, once home to the Norfolk and Western Railway and its shops. Today healthcare leads the economy, with Carilion Clinic headquartered here and the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine downtown, alongside manufacturing, transportation and logistics. The Roanoke Valley is ringed by the Blue Ridge and Allegheny mountains, and the city has worked hard to promote itself as an outdoor destination, with greenways, mountain biking and access to the Appalachian Trail.
