Beat the Summer Crowds at Shenandoah and Save

As we endure miserable winter temperatures and count down to the first day of spring, now is the time to start planning for that first vacation when the sun comes back out. With the help of the “Early Bird Spring Weekday” package at Shenandoah National Park Lodging, travelers can save big and experience the pure wonders of Mother Nature.

Starting at just $99, the package represents 33 percent in savings and includes one night’s lodging and a delicious complimentary breakfast for two. The package, which runs weekdays March 23 through June 26, 2008, with blackout dates of May 23, 24 and 25, 2008, gives early bird travelers a chance to enjoy the spectacular landscape of Shenandoah before the summer crowds arrive.

Perched in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Appalachians just 90 miles from Washington, D.C., Shenandoah National Park is home to many wildlife animals, including deer, black bears and wild turkeys. The park holds more than 500 miles of hiking trails—including 101 miles of the Appalachian Trail—that lead to high peaks with panoramic views or to waterfalls in deep canyons. Spring is the best time to see Shenandoah’s wildlife and wildflowers in full bloom—with hills and clearings blanketed by red maple, hepatica, trillium and pink azalea.
