Hiking: Hikers with any level of experience can enjoy the sport on any of the three major trails that span the area.

• The Appalachian Trail runs through the area on its way from Maine to Georgia. The trail is identified by white swatches on trees, signs and other permanent structures. The trail can be accessed at several spots: on Freezeland Road near Linden (only within a mile of the Hot Tub Heaven Chalets! Trails maps provided!); just off John Marshall Highway in Fauquier County; and on Fort Valley Road on the Warren/Shenandoah county line.
• The Tuscarora Trail, formerly the Big Blue Trail because of the blue swatches that mark the course, originates near Matthew's Arm Campground in the Shenandoah National Park and descends to cross the South Fork of the Shenandoah River at the Bentonville low-water bridge. It then follows county roads, one of which was built by George Washington's Army Corps of Engineers during the Revolutionary War. The trail ascends Massanutten Mountain into Shenandoah County. Ultimately the Tuscarora meets up with the C&O Canal Trail in Cumberland, MD.
• Skyline Drive and the Shenandoah National Park, a 195,000-acre park combines protected mountain land with trails and beautiful views. The park's trails, varying from short walks to 12-hour hikes, intersect with waterfalls, streams, old home sites and scenic vistas. Wildflowers, more than 205 species of birds, white-tailed deer and black bear abound. (Trail maps provided at the Chalets for your use - please return.)
