아름다운 폭포

The pinnacle of Mill Prong's Trail, situated just above the historic Rapidan Camp. Please use caution at challenging stream crossings, approximately eight feet wide, especially during spring flows.

This waterfall is a site to see, that's for sure. Visited in late April and the trail was busy even with arriving around 9am. Parking lot in this part of the park for this trail was descent sized for the amount of visits it gets. The hike to the most scenic part of the falls was very quick paced as you are going down hill. It was quite lovely to look down at the bottom of the falls as you make your descent. However, because you are hiking through the mountains, some parts require you to have sturdy sure steps and may not be good on weak ankles. Recommend very good ankle support shoes for down hill hiking on this one. The falls can be crossed at the bottom but be careful as the rocks will be slippery. You can also continue on down this trail further past the end of the falls, if you chose to. The ascent back up to the parking lot is moderate, heck, strenuous if you are not used to up hill trekking. It's the least pleasurable thing about this hike.

Rose River Falls is considered one of the best waterfalls to see in Virginia's Shenandoah National Park. Due to its beauty and accessibility, it tends to attract a lot of visitors, particularly on weekends. To enjoy the falls in peace, arrive early before the crowds show up. During rainy season, the falls surge with enough water for swimming, though most people opt to picnic nearby and cool off by dipping their feet in the shallow waterfall pool. At any time of year, the waterfall provides a gorgeous nature backdrop for relaxation. Just keep in mind, during the summer, the waterfall may not be as impressive as it is the other seasons.

Small waterfall that, unlike the other waterfalls in the area, can be reached quite easily and quickly.

Winter season is very quiet. Get there before 10 am and you can have it all to yourself. For those who wanted to venture a little far you can make a full circle to go down and visit rose fall and Lewis fall and then back to right across the skyline on the other side.

When getting to the point of crossing the Robinson river over to the Whiteoak fire road, forget about trying to figure out the best way to get with dry shoes across the river. Just continue the trail for another 60 yards / 55 meters and there will be a steel bridge to take you safely over to the other side.

Just by the trail you will come by a rock wall with several small water falls splashing down. Easily accessible and a great way to just dip your head into one of the water falls to feel completely refreshed after 3 miles up the canyon.
