More Waterfalls Hikes @ SNP

This is a series of hikes on the 2nd day of my stay @ Shenandoah National Park. These are all rated ‘moderate’ hikes from the park’s formula for determining hiking difficulty. Please bear in mind that this is relative to one’s fitness level. Also, distances listed of these hikes may not be that accurate. My GPS watch recorded longer distances for each hike.

Remember to stop by the park’s Visitor Center and get up-to-date information about the trail conditions. Talk to a ranger before you go.
