Roanoke, Alabama is located in Randolph County on the eastern edge of the state. The town and the county are located in the Piedmont region, which is a mountainous plateau that extends from New Jersey to central Alabama. That means that vacationers coming to the area should expect to do some driving in the hills. It also makes Roanoke a stunning place to experience the great outdoors.

Roanoke was originally populated by Creek Native Americans. They were first persuaded and then forced off of their land. The area was then named High Pine for the tall pine trees. It was renamed Chulafinnee, and finally, it was named Roanoke. Obviously, it is named in honor of Roanoke, Virginia, one of the first colonies in the New World.

Several professional athletes, especially football players, come from Roanoke. The town is less than twenty minutes from the Georgia state line. It’s about two hours away from Birmingham and one hour from Talladega National Forest.
