Travel Massanutten, VA: View from top of mountain

This video clip was taken during our Virginia fall vacation on October 5, 2007. After three full days of out-of-town excursions we decided to relax and take it easy for a change. In the afternoon I rented a mountain bike at the Massanutten Resort and cycled up into the hills surrounding the resort. After a solid 50 minutes of sweat-inducing exertion I finally arrived at the top of the mountain ridge. There is a great lookout area on top of the mountains on the west side of the resort and I had a great view into the eastern portion of the Shenandoah Valley. Massanutten is a four-season destination that offers 14 ski runs with a vertical drop of 1,110 feet. The resort also features two golf courses and a driving range as well as a water park.

I am actually a travel writer who loves to explore international destinations as well as my chosen home town of Toronto. On Youtube you will find hundreds of video clips from a wide variety of destinations. Feel free to check out some of my 700+ articles and interviews on http://www.travelandtransitions.com. Also, my travel e-books containing stories from my trips to destinations such as Sicily, Havana, Mexico City, New York City, Chicago, Florida, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Vancouver, Halifax and many others are available right now at http://www.travelandtransitions.com/e-books.htm.
