Shenandoah National Park – North District – Elkswallow Wayside.
Just in case you forgot something when hiking, camping or just visiting the North District of the SNP, at mile 24.1 is the Elkswallow Wayside.
The Wayside is open from mid-April through fall and sells a large variety of goods in a compact space: Souvenirs, beer, wine, groceries, fuel and most importantly, firewood (remember, you cannot bring your own firewood into the park and it’s often tough to scavenge enough dry wood for a good fire!). They also have a lunch counter/deli and ice cream – a great treat for a hot day!
There is also a picnic area, staff to answer questions and a few items of clothing in case the weather changes or you need a clean, dry T-shirt!
