You need to do skyline dr/ blue ridge parkway for leaves and mountains

Skyline Drive starts about where the BRP ends; one difference is SD cost because it is in the National Park; free if you have an annual or senior pass. On the north end it ends at Front Royal near I 66. We drove most of it last year and were disappointed in the colors. May have just been an off year, we were there in early November.

If you go to northern VA the Neighborhood Italian Kitchen in Winchester is very good.

That is looking west across the Shenandoah Valley from near the visitor center on the north end. We were expecting more reds and yellows; instead it was a lot of brown.

There were some colorful places along Skyland Drive. Maybe it would have been more colorful in late October.
