Additional Description: Take a Historic Hike

To your right, Signal Knob provides a breathtaking view of the lower Shenandoah Valley. Both armies used the unobstructed vista to observe enemy movements and to signal communications to soldiers miles away. The ten-mile hike is strenuous but worthwhile. The trailhead is located on Fort Valley Rd.
