| Description | One of 11 official guides to the Appalachian Trail, each of which includes a pack-sized book and up to seven separate water-resistant maps in a resealable plastic bag, this volume covers the 107 miles within Shenandoah National Park in the western part of central Virginia. The three detached, full-color, tear-resistant, two-sided maps each cover about one-third of the park. The maps are at a scale of an inch to a mile and include elevation profiles and topographical lines. Both the book and the maps include many of the dozens of scenic side trails in the park, where the A.T. roughly parallels the north-south Skyline Drive. Detailed trail descriptions are in the book, along with information on water sources, shelters, and road access points and background on area history, points of interest, geology, and natural resources. |
