Distance: 26/36 miles
Climbing: 50/45 feet per mile

Description: This route is a shorter variation of the Grottoes – Port Republic route.  The longer version makes it as far north as Grottoes.  This is also a beautiful ride through the open farmland of the central Shenandoah Valley.  It runs mostly north and south and therefore is fairly flat.

Stores: New Hope – mile 16 (short), mile 26 (long)
