The Sherando Lakes are commonly referred to as "the jewels of the Blue Ridge Mountains." The lower lake is much bigger than the upper lake, but both have their draws. There are a lot of recreational amenities surrounding the lakes, and there are also a number of different hiking trails that you can connect to for longer day hikes and overnight trips.
