Shenandoah National Park trip planner

Shenandoah National Park showcases a particularly scenic section of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Skyline Drive runs 169 km (105 mi) down through the long and narrow park, delivering expansive views of the mountains, the Shenandoah River, and the Shenandoah Valley. Hiking trails lead through wooded hollows and to numerous cascading waterfalls, and they provide chances to glimpse deer, black bears, foxes, coyotes, and rabbits on the ground and songbirds, owls, hawks, and falcons overhead. One of the greatest appeals of the park, though, is that its 810 hectares (2,000 acres) of wilderness sit just 120 km (75 mi) from Washington, D.C.
