Scenic View/Photo Spot

Jenkins Gap Overlook peers onto the Piedmont from a small window above the intersection of two hills. Looking east, and at an elevation of 2,355 ft (717 m), you are peering into a hollow formed by the Bolton Branch of the Burgess River. Jenkins Gap is named after the Jenkins families that were displaced from their homes within the boundaries of what became Shenandoah National Park.
