164) Shenandoah National Park

Visited: Sunday, September 8, 2024 - Monday, September 9, 2024

Somehow, Shenandoah was not really on my radar.  Oh, we were going to visit, no question, but it was the Blue Ridge Parkway we were most excited about.

How silly of me.

Shenandoah is 105 miles of spectacular views.  There are 75 overlooks you can stop at, and honestly, you can just pick randomly, or stop at all of them, and be fine.

Honestly, the only thing stopping this from being among my favorites of the national parks is the shortage of wildlife.  There are bears in the park, but we mostly saw squirrels and birds.  A couple of raptors, but - a lot of turkey vultures.
