Some more technical <a href=\"Hiking\">hiking trails</a> criss-cross the island and are a local <a href=\"Biking\">mountain biking</a> favorite because of the proximity to downtown. \n</p>\n<h3>Kayaking and Canoeing</h3>\n<p>Kayaking and canoeing is easier in the First Break rapids on the west end of the island. Farther east (downriver), the Class IV Hollywood Rapids provide a more technical challenge. \n</p>\n<h3>Rock Climbing</h3>\n<p>The north side of the island features a rock face overlooking the quarry pond.\n</p>\n<h3>Swimming and Sunbathing</h3>\n<p>The western, eastern, and northern sides of the island provide the best swimming opportunities in the James River. Multiple exposed rocks become sunbathing and picnic spots on warm days. Precautions should be taken as the rocky terrain and swirling currents could be dangerous. Additionally, rocks, glass bottles, cans, and other underwater obstacles make water shoes or other foot protection a good idea.\n</p>\n<h2>Location and Directions</h2>\n<p>The park is located in the middle of the <a href=\"James_River\">James River</a> and accessed via a footbridge suspended underneath the <a href=\"Lee%20Bridge\">Lee Bridge</a>.

During the 1860's, the island was inhabited by a village complete with a school, church, and general store.\n</p><p>The island served as a prison for Union soldiers during the Civil War. Between 1862 and 1865, the island was home to about 30,000 POW's and as many as 1,000 died. The nail factory was re-opened after the civil war and remained in operation until 1972.  \n</p><p>The Virginia Electric Power Company built and operated a hydroelectric power plant on the island between 1904 and 1963. \n</p><p>The original Lee Bridge was built over the island in 1934 and replaced by the current version in 1988. Belle Isle was formally made into a park in 1973. \n</p>",
