MAPLE VALLEY WEATHER FORECAST UPDATE
This video update will also be on our website and YouTube. Every Thursday (2 PM EST): we'll premiere our Fall Broadcast on Facebook.You can also view photos from various points in the Park in our photo album below. We'll ask other visitors to post their photos so that you can see what others are seeing as well. Every Week: photos will be posted on our social media ( Instagram and Facebook) from three different photo points throughout the Park.Heres what we're doing to keep you up-to-date on current leaf conditions in the Park: Because of this, i t's impossible to predict a peak time for fall color. Fall color conditions can vary dramatically from area to area, and weather affects the color from hour-to-hour. Wondering what's up with the color in Shenandoah? We've devised several ways to keep you posted, but remember: the Park is over 100 miles long and spans a wide elevation range. If you choose a reservable site, you will have to vacate Friday morning. Be sure to know which sites are first-come, first-served sites (There are signs!) if you want to stay more than one night. These sites fill quickly - usually by Thursday evening. Try a nice circuit trip south through the lowlands on Route 29 to the east or on Route 340 to the west to Swift Run (Route 33) or Rockfish (Route 64) entrance stations, and then return via the Skyline Drive.Īt campgrounds: fall weekends are already fully booked! Can you plan a weekday adventure? There are first-come, first-served sites at all campgrounds but, it's important to know: You cannot reserve a first-come, first-served site by calling the Park directly you must be at the campground in person. And think SAFETY! Use this busy time of year to look for the hidden gems that are less traveled!Īt entrance stations: the two most northern entrances, Front Royal and Thornton Gap, are the busiest and have the longest waits. We're having some challenges with improperly parked vehicles, so be sure all four wheels are off the pavement, and don't block roads, gates, or others. If a parking area is full, it's time to move on to another trail.
