Few things are more rewarding than spending time in the great outdoors with loved ones. Here in Virginia, that often means heading out and exploring our state’s magnificent array of hiking trails. While not every Virginia trail is family-friendly — some clock in at over 10 miles! — many prove to be perfect for even the youngest adventurers. Today’s trail promises just that; a kid-friendly loop through the woods that will entertain all ages. Here’s more on why you’ll love your time exploring the Lewis Falls Trail in Shenandoah National Park.
Tucked away in Shenandoah National Park awaits a wonderful, lesser-known trail. You'll want to set aside approximately four hours to enjoy all that the Lewis Falls Trail has to offer.
The trail leaves from the Big Meadows Amphitheatre and winds its way through old-growth forest. Whether you visit in the summer or winter, you can look forward to beautiful scenery at every turn.
For example, look at this fascinating twisted tree branch!

The pinnacle of the trail is the overlook, which, as you can see from the photo below, offers an incredible view of the mountains. That's not all though!
