If you'd like to park your bike for a while and take a walk on the Appalachian Trail, this is a great place to do it. You also get a really nice view of the Shenandoah Valley through a gap in the trees, with Massanutten Mountain and New Market Gap—the site of a famous Civil War battle—visible in the distance.
