Rapidan Camp Loop via Appalachian Trail
Shenandoah National Park
FEB 2023
8.6 mile loop - 1,381 foot elev gain - hard
Well kept trail. Clearly marked. Moved counter clockwise.
Pretty views peaking through the leaf-less tress at Hazeltop on the AT and off. Interesting exploring Rapidan Camp.
The climb up Mill Prong and out of Rapidan is decently steep and a heart-pumper. Clocked roughly 8.5 miles round trip. Overall, great hike!
Would be fully shaded in summer. The leaf peeper in me is excited to revisit in the future during autumn!
Trailhead parking aplenty at Milam Gap
Pit/Vault toilets near Rapidan Camp
happy hikng!
