Suggested Hikes
Hike #1: Stony Man Trail 1.6-mile lariat, easiest, 1 hour hiking time, 340-foot elevation gain. Pets are not allowed on this trail. Take the blue- and white-blazed Stony Man Trail/Appalachian Trail (A.T.). At the trail post continue onto the blue-blazed Stony Man Trail to the viewpoint. To continue the loop, take the blue-blazed Stony Man Trail back to the junction with the A.T., and follow the A.T. back to the starting point. At the viewpoint, you’ll overlook the Shenandoah Valley, the town of Luray, and the Massanutten and Allegheny Mountains beyond.
Hike #2: Passamaquoddy Loop 3.5-mile circuit, moderate, 2 1/2 hours hiking time, 770-foot elevation gain. Walk to the other end of Stony Man parking. Look for the trail post; go straight on the yellow-blazed Furnace Spring Horse Trail. At the next trail post, go right onto the blue-blazed Passamaquoddy Trail. At the next trail post, go right onto the Appalachian Trail (A.T.) south to your starting point at Stony Man parking.
