Editor Tips & Helpful Hints
  • The interpretative Mountain Farm Trail gives you a good dose of pioneer history, but head up the steep Humpback Rocks Trail for amazing views and a sweat-inducing 700-foot elevation gain. Keep going another mile to bag the summit of Humpback Mountain.
  • Humpback Rocks doesn't have any camping facilities, but you pitch up at nearby Sherando Lake, part of George Washington National Forest.

Address:
Blue Ridge Parkway (milepost 5-9.3)
