Shenandoah Mountain, Mountain summit in George Washington National Forest, United States.
Shenandoah Mountain extends 73 miles through Virginia and West Virginia, forming a steep sandstone ridge with multiple elevated peaks and forested slopes.
The mountain range served as a strategic location during the Civil War, providing natural barriers and observation points for military operations in the Shenandoah Valley.
Native American heritage remains evident in the mountain's name, while local communities maintain traditional practices of forest management and outdoor recreation.
Visitors can access the mountain via U.S. Route 33, which crosses between Franklin, West Virginia and Harrisonburg, Virginia, offering numerous hiking trails.
Reddish Knob, the highest point at 4,397 feet elevation, provides views across six counties spanning two states from its summit location.
