About White Oak Canyon Trail
Six waterfalls tumble down a forested canyon, with swimming holes and smaller cascades along the way. Many visitors turn back at the lower falls, while the full route reaches all six for a day-long outing. Expect rocky footing, a steady climb out of the canyon and several stream crossings. A nearby connection links to the Cedar Run Trail for a longer loop through the Shenandoah Wilderness.
