The Shenandoah River fishing area lies in Virginia, about 0.2 miles from the town of Riverton Junction. It is an easy fishing destination, and the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources manages the land. Fall is the most comfortable time to fish. Typical averages from the nearby Front Royal weather station show October highs around 67°F with lows near 45°F, and the station sits about 370 feet lower than the river, so temperatures here run somewhat cooler. The Andreae Family Wellness and Recreation Trail and Dickey Ridge Trail are both about 3 miles away for a walk. Crooked Run, a canoeing spot, is about 3.7 miles off, and Passage Creek, another fishing area, is about 8 miles away.
