Stokes County elevation and terrain tools
Piedmont • County seat: Danbury
Stokes County is rolling piedmont broken by the Sauratown Mountains, an isolated range whose cliffs at Hanging Rock and Moores Knob rise above Danbury. The Dan River crosses from Virginia and winds east past Danbury below the mountains.
