South Fork Shenandoah River

 

South Fork Shenandoah River

The South Fork Shenandoah River is one of two forks that unite to form the Shenandoah River in northwestern Virginia in the United States. It flows through a long lateral valley in the Appalachian Mountains on the west side of the Blue Ridge.

It is formed at Port Republic in southern Rockingham County, by the confluence of the North River and South River. It flows northeast in a tight meandering course, past Elkton and Shenandoah, in a valey between the Blue Ridge Mountains to the east and the Massanutten Ridge to the west. It joins the North Fork at Front Royal, on the north end of the Massanutten Ridge, to form the Shenandoah.
