About
Sky Meadows State Park offers sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from rolling pastures that were once a working farm. Camping here is entirely primitive and hike-in, reached on foot or by bike rather than by car, with individual, paired, and group tent sites tucked into the landscape - there are no cabins or drive-to campsites. The park also has more than 20 miles of hiking and horseback riding trails, plus direct access to the Appalachian Trail.
