Spring in Shenandoah

Spring is an incredible time to enjoy wildflowers, birds and other wildlife as we travel through Shenandoah National Park. Every spring, the mountains of the southeastern United States produce some of the most vibrant and diverse woodland wildflower displays in the world!

We will be in Shenandoah National Park during peak spring wildflower bloom! Additionally, birds are very visible as they flood the forests and fields, filling the air with their vibrant songs.

Weather

Weather in Shenandoah can be quite changeable and variable. In the spring, we can expect highs in the mid 60s and lows in the mid 40s at lower elevations. The park’s higher elevations encourage as much as a 10-degree difference - great hiking weather. We will be prepared for a range of temperatures, along with the possibility of some spring rains,
