Our trip to Old Rag mountain in March 2010.
After arriving late, just about noon I think, we set out to hike Virginia's most popular hike - Old Rag.
Old Rag Mountain is located in Shenandoah National Forest in the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia. With an elevation of 3291 feet it offers up some spectacular views for much of this hike.
However, it's the boulder scramble that make this hike VA's most popular.
Trail note: We arrived at noon on a Saturday in March and the weather was very nice... which meant "themepark like" lines to get through some of the more challenging spots on the mountain and absolutely no solitude on this hike. This is a must do hike, but I would suggest early morning at the trailhead to beat the crowds. If you think it's a nice day for a hike, then so does everyone else!
