Skyline drive, which crests the Blue Ridge Mountains, is the highlight of your adventure. The beautiful 100- mile drive parallels a part of the famed Appalachian Trail.
Endless hiking opportunities both on and off the Appalachian Trail will take you through and to scenic forests, plush meadows, and historic cabins.
For many, history is the park’s primary draw. Shenandoah was the mountaineering frontier for settlers who lived there for over a hundred years. The marks of farmland, lumbering, and animal pastures have nearly disappeared as the forests and natural landscapes have slowly returned.
