Collapsed quartzite rock forms Blackrock Summit. The rock is believed to be formed from the seabed of the Iapetus ocean, an ancient sea that disappeared more than 400 million years ago.

This viewpoint, one of two along the Frazier Discovery Trail, offers sweeping views of Shenandoah National Park. Take some time to pause here and fully appreciate the beauty of the area.

A well-maintained dirt path leads you on a steady incline to this spot, where you'll enjoy panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. As you approach the summit, the trail becomes rockier, offering a fun and technical run.

From the summit there is a splendid view of Shenandoah National Park. A summit that deserves to be reached.

Lewis peak is a 2,700-foot peak that is reached by a spur trail off the Rockytop Trail. While this peak is not as tall as some of the other nearby mountains, it does give you a great view of Rockytop and Lewis Mountain.

Rockytop is a 2,850-foot peak that gives you a great view of the other peaks in Shenandoah National Park. The trail to get up to the peak is straightforward, but challenging. However, it is definitely worth the effort for the view at the top.

Stay on the Brown Mountain Trail and you'll reach Rocky Mountain. At the summit you'll find the rocky outcrop that gave this summit its name. The area was damaged by a fire and an ice storm in 2016 and 2018 respectively and it is nice to see how nature is already creeping back in.
