LOFT MOUNTAIN the BEST CAMPGROUND IN VIRGINIA 

Hello, If you SUBSCRIBE to this channel you will get videos that are about Hiking the Appalachian Trail, Tips on Trail Life, Full-time RV Living and camping. I am honored that you are watching my video and look forward to hearing from you and some of your ideas for future content that you would like for me to cover in the videos.

Thank you so much for this video. My husband and I are tent campers. We like really quiet campgrounds and after a little research we decided to stay here in the beginning of May 2019. It is so helpful to have a video like yours to give us a better understanding of what we are going to experience while there.

Thank you for recommending Loft Mountain! We stayed there 2 weeks ago and it was the best experience of my life. I couldn't believe how many stars there were at night and it was so quiet. I woke up in the morning to see the sunrise and it was just me and the deer. I felt like the only one on the mountain. Such a great place to go!

They just change some of the numbers on the map here recently at Loft mountain but the best sites are on the A loop 56 to 62. The absolute best site is A20 and A19 for tents. But save those for me. Hike Doyle’s Falls to Jones run loop trail. The best overlook in the area will be Black Rock Summit.

To everyone who is reading this, you’re beautiful and an amazing person. Please exercise frequently and eat more fruits/veggies. I wish you all good health, great success, and everlasting happiness!!!!!0

Thank you for the video, we were trying to decide between the different campgrounds in the park and this was helpful!

Love Shenandoah, so many great hikes and beautiful scenery. Nice video, keep it up!!

Loft mountain is definitely the highlight of my childhood can’t wait to take my family!

Good grief! I've been camping all around that place for years and years and never visited it!!! I'm sold! Thanks for posting this!

And this is why I love, love, love Shenandoah National Park!

I just subscribed, I'm from southern Virginia and stumbled across this video and I am so checking out this campground!!

Around Easter time 1975, camping solo from N.J. to Cherokee, N.C. / Gatlinburg area. Stopped approx. half way home from Cherokee and stopped at " Loft Mtn. Very beautiful vista so I decided to sleep outside my tent in my sleeping bag.. An adult black bear checked out my picnic campsite table within a few minutes of turning off my propane lamp . Bear ate my Rx.s for any diarrhea problem. Found the cracked plastic vial and he ate the whole amount of tabs. Bear canine teeth punctured my large unopened Dinty Moore Stew and drank its broth. Walked near me hidden in my sleeping bag and picked up my large ice chest with its front paws and walked away upright carrying my food chest away from me. Heard it thrown down and the safety latch popped open ; bear ate its contents. I slinked out of my bag and retreated back into my tent. The bear never came back to investigate my junk food in sealed plastic bags within my tent. I fell asleep with a Bowie knife in my hand sitting up. My plan was to stab the bear in the throat. God was with me ; but a scary but " cool " experience.

Glad the sun finally came out for you guys! That's why I section hike: I'm never done. Goat

I’m your new subscriber! Thanks for this video. I’m planning to camp at Loft or Big Meadows (watched your big meadow video as well).

Great narrative and video! William is awesome!

I live very close to the Skyline Drive and Loft Mountain is my favorite, my wife's favorite and was my parents favorite, Lewis Mountain would be second behind that.

You have a great channel! I’ve subscribed! I really appreciate your videos and especially the ones reviewing parks like Shenandoah. I go there a lot. I first went in 1980 with my parents. I’ve recently been camping there with my gang. I love it there. The good thing with no hook-ups/boon docking is you seem to get a better crowd to camp with and less trouble with rude people. I mean it happens but less frequently imo.

Hey that bear didn’t look both ways before he crossed!! 😂

Great Video. Love the information tied in with the shots of the different aspects of the camp ground.

Hey, great video, super helpful ❤️ do you usually reserve your spot? What are the chances of getting in per FF? :)

Do you think i would be okay to just show up and hope for a tent camping spot? Or should I reserve one ahead of time? I’m trying to go in about two weeks! Thanks for this video too :)

Which shenandoah campground would you recommend for a beginner lol? I have a lot of experience camping but I want to bring inexperienced people.

Good video bro

Great job!

Nice William

Are the the bears dangerous? after watching your video I plan to camp and hike there soon with my kids ; but am concerned about the big black bears I saw on the video because. Do the bears attack humans?

nice video

How much does it cost to stay the night ?

how much would ya say the trip cost ya overall

This is what I would call real camping, not that "sleeping near the ocean" type stuff

You lost me at measure 37 when you stuck the camera on your face. Can we see where you are going please? The landscape whatever it is it is more helpful than.......watching you drive. yikes, I fast forwarded to see if the scenery improves.......we are still watching you drive.

Is there any phone signal there?
