23 THINGS TO DO IN SHENANDOAH VALLEY, VIRGINIA

This richly fertile region is perfect for outdoor adventures, scenic viewpoints, farm-to-table dining experiences, family-owned wineries and breweries to explore, and U-Pick farms.

We took a five-day family road trip here to kick off our summer vacation and discovered many top attractions in Shenandoah Valley, Virginia, in partnership with Visit Virginia.

Things to Do in Shenandoah National Park

If you’re looking to find out what to do in Shenandoah and need help planning your itinerary, don’t sweat, because this guide will tell you everything you need to know.

Drive the Skyline Drive, Shenandoah National Park

If you want to have a full day exploring the drive, we recommend staying at Skyland Resort or Lewis Mountain Cabins, which are around halfway on the drive.

Hike the Dark Hollow Falls Trail

Dark Hollow Falls Trail is a 1.4-mile loop hike down to the Dark Hollow Waterfall. Allow for at least an hour and pack a picnic lunch if you want to spend more time enjoying the falls.

Walk an Alpaca

It’s like having your favorite teddy bear come to life: petting it as you walk and stopping for as many cuddles as you can fit into 60-minutes.

Explore the Luray Caverns

I was stunned by the pristine condition and the abundance of stalagmites and stalactites formations, full-length draperies, and huge columns that this ancient cave has formed over millions of years.

Horseback Riding with Jordan Hollow Stables

We love horseback riding, and the Virginia mountains are a beautiful place to soak up the views on the back of a horse.
