Virginia - Shenandoah National Park: Skyland Dining Room - Blackberry Ice Cream Pie

            Famous blackberry ice cream pie at Skyland Dining Room.

Skyland, nestled along mile 41.7 & 42.5 at Skyline Drive's highest elevation at 3,680 feet offers lodging and dining accomodations spread out across 28 separate buildings along the ridge and in the wooded areas on over 27 acres of Shenandoah National Park.

Decades before Shenandoah National Park was established, vacationers traveled to Skyland Resort. The resort was created in 1890s by George Pollack on land that didn't pan out for him as a copper mine.  Ever the promoted, Pollack helped popularize the resort among middle class business people in nearby urban areas. In 1937 it became the core of the new Shenandoah National Park and today is a popular destination for park visitors.

Shenandoah National Park, traversing the Blue Ridge Mountains in north-central Virginia, was established as a National Park on December 256, 1935.  The park stretches for 105 miles along Skyline Drive, with the Shenandoah River and its broad valley to the west and the rolling hills of the Virginia Piedmont to the east.  Mostly forested, the park features 200,000 acres of wetlands, waterfalls and rocky peaks.
