Hikers and Nature Lovers Enjoy Shenandoah National Park
One thing I really like about this park is that it is partially accessible to people with physical disabilities, too. (Or moms with infants and toddlers in a jogging stroller or wagon!) You can drive along the famous Skyline Drive the whole way through the park and stop off at a few areas along the way to explore a bit. Limberlost Trail was designed specifically to enable people with disabilities to participate in a hike, but the park website says it has not yet been redone to meet current ADA standards. Since we had family members of all ages along on our visit, we spent a lot of time on Limberlost Trail.

The Best National Park in the Appalachian Mountain Range
Which national park should someone visit if they can only get to one?

Shenandoah National Park is the best!
Are you kidding? Give me the Smoky Mountain National Park!

I say that first I would go to the Smokies...but the Shenandoah is a fantastic park and the Skyline Drive is awesome. I have some fabulous photos from there.
Don't Miss the Luray Zoo
We ran out of time to visit the Luray Zoo, but I wish we would have been able to go. This rescue zoo is home to an alligator snapping turtle who is over 100 years old and an amazing assortment of venomous snakes, as well as a tiger, monkeys and birds of prey.

Luray Caverns
After hiking through Shenandoah National Park for a few days, we headed to the Luray Caverns. They are amazing to go through and the stalacpipe organ was especially fun to see. The boys loved the nearby car and carriage museum and say that was their favorite attraction to visit, but I really don't think you can beat natural wonders!
