Cedar Run Trail Trailhead, Chad Berry Lane, Syria, VA, USA
Come join me for an awesome hike in the Shenandoah park!
Cedar Run trail to white Oak Road Loop is wonderful!
the hike is 7.7 miles long and it takes around 5.5 to 6 hours to complete . the elevation is 2273 ft.
the plan is:
meet up at 9 and leave by 9:15
start the hike at 10:15 and finish by 5:00
We will back on groups round 6:00
We will pass through a lot waterfalls, streams along our way! Be prepared for stream crossings which make the waterfalls and cascades worth the view, be okay with getting a little wet! there are so many pools along the way so If you wanna take a dip this will be a great opportunity for us to rest!
We will begin near mile marker 45.5 along Skyline Drive at Hawksbill Gap Parking Area. From here, you will hike through the forest downhill and along Cedar Run. The second half of the loop is mostly uphill so it will be the more challenging one .
WE will take some breaks so we will be sure that no one will get tired!
drivers and the Shenandoah Park pass holders will be prioritized off the waitlist. As long as I don’t have a second person with a pass, I will only take 4 people with me! If there are 4 people willing to split the entrance fees, I’ll have them go too!
what to bring: lots of water, good hiking shoes, some snacks and your lunch! ( also bring a swimsuit if you wanna swim!)
I’ll bring a first aid kit, extra bottles of water my car!
I’m willing to pick you up and drop you off at your house if you live on campus or nearby!
