Mountain Getaway
Shenandoah National Park
Skyline Drive
Virginia.
Be it a day trip, overnight, a weekend, or several days/nights... the mountains provide a relaxing escape. Escape?... yes, from everything... escape to nature.
A day trip provides a good experience of the overlooks down to the shenandoah valley and the mountain ridges beyond. Everything full of life. Everything green. Everything alive. Plants, trees, birds, bees, deer, bear, even chipmunks. Waterfalls, rock formations, big blue skies and frendly white clouds. Wildflowers and ferns. And given the time of day, misty dew in the morning rolling over the mountains, and amazing sunsets in the evening. Followed by a brilliantly star lit sky. Enjoy the peaceful existance of nature. Enjoy a simple walk on some of the 500 miles of trails.
Daytime same day drive is really nice... but if you have the time, overnight stays at one of the lodges affords you the unrushed freedom to enjoy each day... from mornings first light, to sunsets, to the stars.
Big meadows lodge and Skyland lodges.... perfect choices.
But... so much for talk.
A picture is worth 1,000 words.
Hope you get to enjoy
Shenandoah National Park,
and all it has to offer.
