First off this is NOT the 3 mile rose River loop. So don't head here thinking that. It's an 11 mile loop. We hiked to where it splits and then hiked back which is about 3 miles. It's a beautiful trail along the river with places to get down for the pup to play in the water. It is rocky and places were wet from the river overflowing onto the trail plus you cross some water so ended up with wet feet but worth it. We heard about a black bear spotting from some other hikers we passed but we didn't get to see it. Very beautiful moderate intensity trail.
It was nice moderate hiking near small falls
Trailhead less busy than the trails off skyline drive, my dogs loved playing in the river
I hate that I’m leaving a negative review but I feel that this trailhead is incorrectly labeled. There is another review by someone that makes note of this but it is buried underneath other reviews.nnThis is NOT the trailhead for the 4 mile Rose River Trail loop inside Shenandoah. It is for a much longer hike that goes through the Rose River Fire Rd that will eventually cross Rose River Falls and Dark Hallow Falls, but after many miles of hiking. We went here and after reading on the info board at the trailhead that it was an 11 MILE hike, had to leave and go to White Oak Canyon Lower Parking for a shorter hike, as we arrived late at around 2:00 PM.
Great place, but wrong directions. Access is through Shenandoah National Park. You park at Fisher's Gap parking lot which is directly across from the fire road. I highly recommend trekking poles and wearing hiking boots. If you wear trail runners, prepare to roll your ankles!
