About This Trail

This trail links two beautiful waterfall trails through a remote section of Shenandoah’s South District. Doyles River Falls drops 63 feet in two tiers, while the connected Jones Run Falls cascades 42 feet through a narrow gorge. The 7.8-mile loop requires a shuttle or road walk unless you’re prepared for the full circuit, but the waterfalls are worth the effort.
