appalachian trail印象

Dog loved the constant movement and attention from fellow hikers, eventhough she stayed on a 6 ft leash.

Diversity on much of the trail. We hiked many trails in the park and many criss-crossed with the AT. It gave us a preview of what the long distance hikers must experience.

Be sure to seek out in advance some of the PATC suggestions for "Easy Hikes" or "Short Hikes". You don't have to be a through-hiker to enjoy the many different faces of the Blue Ridge, from open meadow trails to "tunnels" of mountain laurel, waterfalls, etc. Nature at its best.

We drove along the skyline drive and the Appalachian trail follows along much of it. After seeing a bear from the road we decided that we wanted to explore that part of the forest a little more, and the beautifully maintained trail made the perfect way to do so. We just spent half an hour or so walking it as it was the end of the day, but I can see how it would be a very rewarding and enjoyable hike.

We parked in the northern section of Shenandoah National Park at milepost 15.7 to hike a section of the AT. From the parking area we headed north on the AT and within a mile, came upon a beautiful rock outcropping and impressive views. It was early for a break but we couldn't resist playing on the rocks for quite a while. This is an easy spot to reach and fun to explore.

As a through hiker, I really looked forward to the 100+ mile jaunt through the "Shennys". The trail was well groomed, the walking was easy, and the wildlife (bears) were abundant. Not to mention the frequent Waysides and Lodges where the hungry hiker can feast. This is civilized hiking at it's finest. I highly recommend the A.T. in the Shenandoah National Park.

Nice hike, following the stream/river and including some pretty falls. Some elevation gains/drops but generally good footing.
-
Head north from Skyland parking lot, which is where we stay. You can walk as far as you want, but make sure to veer off to see the views from Stoney Man summit and Little Stoney Man Summit.
-
The Appalachian Trail winds in and out along Skyline Drive and you can hop on and off here and feel like a "real" hiker. Fantastic views, even for inexperienced hikers or people who don't have much time. The trails are very well maintained.

I did a Thru in 2012 and I visit the Trail often, for a day hike or a weekend or a week if I can swing it.
