Virginia's Skyline Dr Question

[Iceman]

Does anyone know how long it takes to drive Skyline Dr from north to south? I'm going to try to do it on the way home from Vermont next week?

[KY,Dave (AKA Misunderstood)]

According to this site about 3 hours on a clear day.

It is 100 miles long, lots of deer, go slow and enjoy the view. At least three hours and a small fee, it's a national park.

Where's home and when do you plan on passing through?

Thanks everyone, Home is Ft Lauderdale, and depending on when I leave VT, I should make it there either Mon or Tue morning, will probably look to stay in Riverton the night before.

The Skyline Drive is nice, but a little out of the way for me.

Plus, I have an aversion to TOLL roads (actually they aren't charging you to ride the road, they're charging an entrance fee into the park).


If you'd like to share some wind on the BRP let me know.

They're several places for easy access to I-81 or it can be taken to where it crosses I-77.
