Shenandoah National Park protects a stunning stretch of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia, offering sweeping mountain vistas, cascading waterfalls, forested valleys, and abundant wildlife. The park is famous for Skyline Drive, a scenic roadway running the length of the park along the mountain crest. With over 500 miles of hiking trails—including a portion of the Appalachian Trail—Shenandoah is a favorite destination for hiking, scenic drives, wildlife viewing, and fall foliage.
