Jefferson National Forest was established in 1936 and consists of 117,000 acres of some of Virginia's most beautiful scenery. Virginia's two highest peaks are in the forest. Mount Rogers is the highest peak at 5,729 feet. Be sure to drive Virginia's highest road to reach the top of the state's second highest mountain -- Whitetop Mountain, 5,520 feet. This road is just minutes from the campground and is a popular place to enjoy a spectacular sunset.
