3Skyline Drive – Virginia
Located in Shenandoah National Park, Skyline Drive is a 105-mile scenic route that runs along the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia.

In the fall, Shenandoah’s hardwood forests transform into a sea of vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows, creating a stunning contrast with the blue ridges of the mountains. Skyline Drive is particularly popular in mid-to-late October when the foliage is at its peak. Visitors can also enjoy hiking trails, waterfalls, and wildlife viewing along the route, making it a perfect fall destination for nature lovers.
