Shenandoah National Park
Shenandoah — a wilderness oasis in the busy East. In gazing across the horizon from the peaks of Shenandoah National Park, it's hard to believe you are just 75 miles from the bustle of our nation's capital. Take Skyline Drive along the crest of the mountains through the woods and past spectacular vistas. Hike in the shade of oak trees along the Appalachian Trail, discover the stories from Shenandoah's past or just relax in the wonder of the wilderness. From Rappahannock County, proceed west on Route 211 seven miles from Sperryville to the Thornton Gap entrance to Skyline Drive or come into the park by way of trails located on the eastern slopes of Rappahannock County at designated trailhead entry points.
