This portion of I-64, bordered by the historic towns of Staunton and Charlottesville, climbs the Blue Ridge Mountains adjacent to Shenandoah National Park before descending into the Shenandoah Valley. Silvery streams and impressive waterfalls rush through thick greenery, accented by white mountain laurel and fuchsia rhododendron. Campgrounds, riding stables and nature trails are dotted throughout the area.
