Honeymooners seeking more thrills than the quintessential foodie quest and spirits trail lure of Rappahannock have to go no farther than a fifteen-minute drive to Shenandoah National Park.
The Blue Ridge portion of the Appalachian Trail runs across the spine of the Park. It’s 20 miles to the Old Rag trail head — beacon for the extreme hiker and the premier trad-climbing Mecca in Virginia.
Thrill junkies while staying at LeFay, who would like to pursue more extreme diversions may book with Shenandoah Mountain Guides named by Southern Living Magazine as the best adventure provider in the south or hire LeFay’s photographer for amazing pictures in the Shenandoah.
