TRAVEL TIDBIT:

TRAVEL TIDBIT:
Hike during a weekday
morning to enjoy more
solitude.
I
fyou like the sand between your toes, ifyou like
strolling along a quiet beach, ifyou like an
untouched natural backdrop, Savage Neck Dunes
has you covered.
There are a couple ofother ifs - ifyou can locate it,
since directional signage is scarce, and ifyou can park
there, since the heavily patrolled lot is limited to eight
cars at a time to prevent overcrowding.
But your time is well spent even ifyou have to circle
to pounce on an open space in the lot, located off
Virginia Route 634 south ofEastville on the Eastern
Shore. Savage Neck Dunes is a free, 298-acre natural
preserve along the Chesapeake Bay with three trails that
pass through loblolly thickets and a 4.6-acre fresh water
pond with waterfall and wildlife.
The three-quarters ofa mile beach trail leads to
50-foot-high dunes, some ofthe largest on the Eastern
Shore, that have been formed over 10,000 years, with
S
ometimes, the most time-tested is still the best,
and that's the case with Old RagMountain, a
hike for friends, companions and loved ones
for generations. Note important changes for 2022,
though: Due to the popularity ofthe rock scrambles
and panoramic views, the National Park Service has
instituted a day-use permit system to control
overcrowding. " This pilot project will allow us an
opportunity to test a strategy for managing this area
to ensure Old Rag is preserved, " says Patrick Kenney,
superintendent ofShenandoah National Park.
The climb is still worth the paperwork.
Outsideonline.com named it one ofthe 25 best hikes
in the world. Old Rag, named for the appearance ofits
billion-year-old granite, can be approached in several
ways. The most common is through the Nethers
community inMadison County, about an hour north
ofCharlottesville. It's a 9-mile loop with a top elevation
of3,284 feet, though a shorter route is available at
BerryHollow and you're free to linger along the trails.
You'll need to be in good physical condition because
parts ofthe trails are difficult; also, bring along plenty
ofwater for hydration as well as a first-aid kit. Pets are
not permitted. To secure online permits, search for
" old rag day use " in your browser ofchoice. Tickets
are only $1 during the 2022 test period, with 400
released 30 days in advance and another 400 released
five days in advance.
