About Cedar Run Trail
The loop drops from Hawksbill Gap into the Shenandoah Wilderness and returns along Whiteoak Canyon, passing six waterfalls on the climb. Several stream crossings break up the route, so expect wet feet and take care on slick rocks. The reward is a steady run of cascades and falls in a forested gorge.
