DISCOVER MORE ABOUT DAVIDSON COUNTY
Davidson County, with Lexington as the county seat, has bragging rights to “the Barbecue Capital of the World,” with world-famous wood-fired barbecue restaurants.
As part of the southern section of the Yadkin Valley, the state’s first federally recognized wine trail, Davidson County is home to six wineries, including the renown Childress Vineyards, one of the largest in the state. Bull City Ciderworks produces hard cider in the Depot District, alongside the Goose and the Monkey brewery.
Love the outdoors? Try paddling, hiking and fishing the Yadkin River or hike the 110-acre Daniel Boone Cave Park, adjacent to the river. We share the 15,000-acre High Rock Lake with Rowan County. It’s the second largest manmade lake in the state and is known for water sports, particularly largemouth bass fishing.
We are home to the gallery and museum of Bob Timberlake, North Carolina’s most famous living artist. You’ll find eclectic concerts at Breeden Insurance Amphitheater, Childress Vineyards, Sophie’s Cork & Ale, and High Rock Outfitters.
The small town of Denton in southern Davidson is one of our jewels, with easy access to High Rock and Badin lakes and the age-old, beautiful Uwharrie Mountains just outside your windows. The Springs at High Rock Lake is a gated waterfront community, located on High Rock Mountain, the highest peak in the Uwharries.
