Highlights-Top 5 Viewpoints in Virginia

1-Buzzard Rock. Good place to take one last longing look at
the mountains of eastern Tennessee and western Carolina. Sign
of things to come in the highlands.

2-McAfee Knob. Pretty cliche, I know, but it’s true. The view
across the valley to North Mountain with other long ridges in the
background is a classic to say nothing of the drama of the
overhanging ledge itself.

3-Tinker Cliffs. Almost the same as McAfee with a twist; a
look back at the uniquely shaped Catawba Mt which starts low
and gradually works its way up to McAfee.

4-Wind Rock. As good a look back to Peters Mt and the
ridges beyond as you’re going to get. There’s a certain
loneliness to it given the remoteness of the valley below and
the sense of how long Virginia is turning out to be.

5-Mary’s Rock. It’s a dramatic place to look from even if
there isn’t a lot to look at. This striking rock pinnacle towers
over the Shenandoah Valley below.
