DC to Indiana through Shenandoah
Hi everyone!
I am planning to drive through Shenandoah on my way from DC to Indiana. Can you please suggest a scenic drive through Shenandoah that will not be completely out of the way?
Thank you very much!

I would want to take Skyline Drive, but it's certainly not on the direct route. https://www.nps.gov/shen/planyourvis...line-drive.htm

Rhody (my DH) lived in western Kentucky. From the Silver Spring area, we usually went up 70 and across Western Maryland; then down to Charleston WV (rte. 79?). That was pretty scenic. From D.C., out 66 and the back roads to Charleston are pretty, albeit slower.
After Charleston, we usually took 64 and stopped in Louisville so no help there.
Occasionally, we went south to Nashville and east, but I think the pretty parts were more in the Virginias.
