What could be better motivation for a summer hike than a dreamy swimming hole?

This 3.5-mile loop features plenty of places to splash around, some of which are truly incredible swimming holes. So lace up those hiking boots and don’t forget your swim suit!
Rose River Falls, a gorgeous forested trail hiding in Shenandoah National Park, can only be described as magical.
Along the way, you'll enjoy observing a series of small waterfalls and cascades. Not only does this add to the ambiance of the woods, but also provides a few places to cool off your feet.
A majority of the trail follows the water, but other portions feature gorgeous mountain overlooks and plenty of wildflowers to admire during the warmer months.
Be sure to allot at least 2.5 hours if you want to take advantage of some of the swimming spots along the way. Better yet, pack a picnic and you can enjoy this trail all day!
