Here in Virginia, we love our waterfalls. While many of them are secluded in the woods and require miles of hiking, there are some that are relatively easy-access. One such attraction, known as Dark Hollow Falls, requires just a small amount of hiking before revealing itself.

Here’s more on the magical waterfall awaiting you in Shenandoah National Park:

Tucked away in Shenandoah National Park, Dark Hollow Falls is one of the closest scenic waterfalls to Skyline Drive. You'll find the parking area at 50.7.

Since this trail is frequented by many park visitors, be sure to get there early or better yet, visit during the week if possible.

The trail follows a stream and descends for about .8 miles before it reveals the main attraction.
