Old Rag Peak, at 3284', is the high point of one of the most fun hikes in the Virginia Blue Ridge Mountains.
The gorgeous Shenandoah River flows through Virginia and West Virginia.
Where the mighty Great Falls tumble down the Potomac, rocky cliffs--ideal for climbing--rise from the river.
A dozen "Wilderness Kids" took to snow covered Prince William Forest in February. With 16,000 acres of wilderness, it is the largest protected natural area in the DC metro area.

White Oak Canyon offers beautiful waterfalls and an exhilarating natural water slide.
The fun Billy Goat Trail winds its way along the Potomac River in Maryland, crossing small creeks and traversing boulder fields.
Not far from the traffic of Route 1 is the extraordinary Huntley Meadows wetlands, a popular stopover for migratory birds of all kinds.
