What campers say

Grayson Highlands State Park offers expansive, scenic hiking into Mount Rogers with a mix of moderate to challenging trails and memorable summit and ridge views. Wild ponies, including foals, are a major draw and are often visible from the trails; visitors should follow posted guidelines and avoid feeding them. There’s a small entrance fee (commonly $7–$10) and an occasional honor-envelope system, so bring cash. Massie Gap and nearby lots can fill early, and the visitor center provides restrooms and a small shop though it may be closed at off-hours. Good for families and experienced hikers alike.
