Description:

Containing a vast expanse of the Blue Ridge Mountains, over 300 square miles in all, Shenandoah National Park features some truly inspiring landscapes and vistas. Skyline Drive is the most popular destination in the park, the 105-mile road runs the length of the park and offers amazing scenery right from the road. Containing part of the famous Appalachian Train as well as many other shorter hiking paths, the park has a total of over 500 miles of paths to travel. There are also 180 miles of trails open to horseback riders and bicycles can travel along any paved route. Four campgrounds offer many places for guests to spend the night, but the park is quite popular so make reservations in advance if possible. Located along the northwestern edge of the state, the park stretches between Staunton and Front Royal, seeing heavy traffic year-round but especially during fall when the leaves are dramatically changing colors.
