Top 5 Camping Spots on the Virginia AT

1-Wind Rock. Maybe it's a bit chancy given the number of day
hikers but some places are worth it especially such a prime spot for
sunsets.

2-Hog Camp Gap.
A beautiful meadow just north of Cold Mt. And
the only campsite on the AT with a swing.

3-James River.
The view of the James with the morning mist
coming off the water is one of those truly magical moments on
the AT.

4-Dragon's Tooth.
Spread the pain of Cove Mt out over two days
and catch a good morning view. Nice flat sandy area next to
'the tooth'.

5-Lambert's Meadow Campsite.
Not to be confused with the
shelter 0.3 miles away. I guess you have to be in the right mood
for it. It's a wooded campsite in a sloping bowl complete with a
picnic table and a babbling brook.
