"Within this park are a virtual cornucopia of sights, sounds, and smells that will astound and inspire every member of the family
Bicycling on the drive is allowed, but not encouraged by the NPS (National Park Service) because of the sharp, twisting turns and the lack of shoulders
Skyline Drive is located within the Shenandoah National Park
(For a map of the region, Click Here ) It terminates in Afton, Virginia, at the intersection of I-64, where it becomes the Blue Ridge Parkway
At Big Meadows, there is the official Visitor Center that explains the History of the Park , and all that it offers
And because it is a National Park where hunting is prohibited, the Wildlife here have little fear of humans, and it's possible to stop the car and watch a herd of Deer move about within a few yards of your car, posing as if they know you are taking snapshots of them
In addition to the main entrance stations at the North and South end of the Park, there are two entrance stations accessible by State Highways 33 and 211

South, toward the south end of the Parkway, leads to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
O utstanding scenery and recreational opportunities make the Blue Ridge Parkway one of the most popular units of the National Park System
T he Parkway incorporates several recreation areas, some exceeding 6, 000 acres
These parks within the Parkway have visitor centers, camp grounds, picnic areas, trails and, in many instances, concessionaire-operated lodges, restaurants, gas stations and other facilities

Authorized in the 1930s as a Depression-era public works project, the Parkway was more than a half-century in the making
It was the nation's first, and ultimately longest, rural parkway, connecting Shenandoah National Park in Virginia with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina
