I am planning a section hike in the Shenandoah National Park in September/October. I’ve studied the maps and SNP guide book. Any information or suggestions that can be offered concerning camping sites near the trail — especially in the Southern and Central Districts — would be appreciated. Since the park can be crowded in the fall I would like to avoid the shelters/huts, especially on the weekends.
In AT guide books, the trail log will mention camping/tenting sites, but the gide book on the SNP rarely mentions any. I am familiar with the backcountry camping requirements and restrictions (the Park has a really great brochure), but I figure those who have actually hiked the trail would have the best suggestions to where to find quite, uncrowded camp sites along the AT.
Thanks for the info.

I’m not sure what you mean by campsites. Commercial campgrounds? Where I’ve been, you camp out in the woods, out of sight of the trail. Sleeping in the shelters is prohibited, although people do it. They think they’re in such a remote place they’ll never get caught, and then a guy drives up in a pickup truck on a road they didn’t even see.
