Seven Bends State Park

Seven Bends State Park spans 1,052 acres along the North Fork of the Shenandoah River, featuring 9 miles of hiking trails and river access points.

The park lands include the former Camp Lupton, which operated as a summer camp under Massanutten Military Academy, contributing 306 acres to the current grounds.

The park maintains strong connections with the Friends of the North Fork of the Shenandoah River organization, which supports river conservation and environmental education.

Two hand-carry boat launches provide access for kayaks and canoes, while a family-sized picnic shelter at the north access site includes tables and grills.

The park follows the natural formation of seven distinct river bends, creating a sequence of waterfront views along more than two miles of riverbank trails.
