Skyline Drive is a 105-mile (169 km) National Parkway that runs the entire length of the National Park Service's Shenandoah National Park in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, generally along the ridge of the mountains. The drive's northern terminus is at an intersection with U.S. Route 340 (US 340) near Front Royal, and the southern terminus is at an interchange with US 250 near Interstate 64 (I-64) in Rockfish Gap, where the road continues south as the Blue Ridge Parkway. The road has intermediate interchanges with US 211 in Thornton Gap and US 33 in Swift Run Gap. Skyline Drive is part of Virginia State Route 48, which also includes the Virginia portion of the Blue Ridge Parkway, but this designation is not signed.

The road has intermediate interchanges with US 211 in Thornton Gap and US 33 in Swift Run Gap. Skyline Drive is part of Virginia State Route 48, which also includes the Virginia portion of the Blue Ridge Parkway, but this designation is not signed. A park entrance fee is charged at the four access points to the drive. Skyline Drive is a two-lane road that has 75 overlooks providing views of the Shenandoah Valley to the west and the Piedmont to the east. The drive provides access to numerous trails, including the Appalachian Trail, and it is also used for cycling and horseback riding. Skyline Drive is the main road through Shenandoah National Park and has access to campgrounds, visitor centers, and resorts such as Skyland Resort and Big Meadows. The scenic drive is particularly popular in the fall for leaf peeping when the leaves are changing colors. Plans for the road date back to 1924 when a national park was planned in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and the main feature was to be a "sky-line drive" providing views of the surrounding land. President Herbert Hoover, who had a summer home at Rapidan Camp, called for the construction of the road. Groundbreaking for Skyline Drive took place in 1931. The first section, which originally was to run from Rapidan Camp to Skyland, was extended between Swift Run Gap and Thornton Gap and opened in 1934. Skyline Drive was extended north to Front Royal in 1936 and south to Jarman Gap in 1939. The road between Jarman Gap and Rockfish Gap was built as part of the Blue Ridge Parkway in 1939 and was incorporated into Skyline Drive in 1961. The Civilian Conservation Corps played a large part in constructing Skyline Drive. Improvements have been made to the roadway since it was built. Skyline Drive was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, became a National Scenic Byway in 2005, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2008. (en)
  • スカイライン・ドライブ（英語: Skyline Drive）は、アメリカ合衆国バージニア州北部のシェナンドー国立公園の全長を走る道路である。 (ja)
  • Skyline Drive to narodowa droga krajobrazowa przebiegająca granią Pasma Błękitnego wzdłuż całej długości Parku Narodowego Shenandoah w Wirginii w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Droga przebiega z Front Royal na północy do przełęczy Rockfish w pobliżu Waynesboro na południu i ma 169 km długości. Rocznie przejeżdża nią niemal 1,4 mln turystów, głównie jesienią, gdy liście na drzewach zmieniają kolory. Na całej długości drogi obowiązuje ograniczenie prędkości do 35 mil na godzinę (ok. 56 km/h) i znajduje się na niej 75 punktów widokowych z parkingami. (pl)
  • Skyline Drive is een 169 km lange weg die het hele Shenandoah National Park, gelegen op een bergrug van de Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia, doorkruist. Meestal slingert de weg zich over de bergkam, rond de toppen. De panoramische weg is vooral populair in de herfst wanneer de bladeren verkleuren. Jaarlijks bezoeken meer dan twee miljoen mensen de Skyline Drive, die erkend werd als een National Scenic Byway. De toegangswegen zijn: * Front Royal (Virginia) (U.S. Route 340), het noordelijke beginpunt * * * (Interstate 64, ), het zuidelijke beginpunt De Skyline Drive werd aangelegd als een project van de Works Progress Administration (WPA) tijdens de Grote Depressie. De constructie van de weg was zowel moeilijk als gevaarlijk. Grote doorgangen moesten in de heuvels en toppen worden gemaakt om een weg aan te leggen breed genoeg voor het verkeer. De werkzaamheden vatten aan in 1931 en werden voltooid (van Swift Run Gap naar Rockfish Gap) in 1939, het jaar van de opening. Daar de gebruikers moeten betalen aan de toegangspunten is de Skyline Drive feitelijk een tolweg. (nl)
