Reddish Knob, Mountain summit in Augusta County and Pendleton County, United States
The Reddish Knob summit reaches an elevation of 4,397 feet, offering views of the Shenandoah Valley, western Virginia, Highland County, and multiple mountain ranges.
From the 1920s until 1975, a steel fire tower stood at the summit, serving as a critical fire detection and control point for the surrounding forest areas.
The peak attracts students from James Madison University, Eastern Mennonite University, and Bridgewater College who gather at the summit parking area throughout the year.
Visitors can access the summit via a narrow paved road from Harrisonburg, with additional hiking trails branching from Route 924 for a four-mile ascent.
The mountain forms part of the watershed of the Potomac River, with its northwest side draining into Stony Run and its south side into the North Fork of the Little River.
