Shawl Gap

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Shawl Gap sits along the trail system in the George Washington & Jefferson National Forest near Massanutten Mountain, accessed only on foot with no drive-in option. Campfires are permitted, and cell service is available at the site. Hammock camping works well here given the tree cover along the trail corridor. The nearby Elizabeth Furnace Campground provides a drive-in alternative for those in the same area. Shawl Gap is a practical choice for hikers who want a lightweight overnight stop with minimal infrastructure and campgrounds near Strasburg as a broader planning reference.
