2011 Map of Bergton

About this map

Bergton sits at the convergence of several mountain waterways, where the German River meets the Crab Run and flows toward the North Fork Shenandoah River. This 2011 survey of the Rockingham County borderlands highlights a landscape defined by sharp ridges and deep hollows, including Shipe Hollow, Wetzel Hollow, and Mongold Hollow. Long-standing family names are preserved through features like Moyers Cemetery and Crab Run Cemetery, offering points of interest for those researching local lineage. The terrain is marked by significant peaks such as Flattop Mountain and Mine Mountain, while the Lost River cuts through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. Recreation and access are noted via the Blue Hole Campground and a network of secondary routes like Smith Mountain RD and Crab Run RD, which follow the natural contours of the stream valleys.
