About this map

Luray sits at the heart of the Page Valley, flanked by the heights of Massanutten Mountain and the rising slopes of Shenandoah National Park. The South Fork Shenandoah River winds through the western portion of the map, carving a path between the mountain ranges and supporting a landscape dotted with numerous historic family burial grounds. Notable sites like the Charles Keyser Family Cem and the Hershberger Plantation Cem provide a dense genealogical record of early settlement families along the river corridor and the banks of Hawksbill Creek.

Regional history is anchored by the Page County Courthouse and the nearby Lord Fairfax Community College Luray Center, while the presence of the Luray Caverns Airport highlights the area's modern infrastructure. The map details the transition from the fertile valley floor to the protected woodlands of the George Washington National Forest, marking the intersection of agricultural land and preserved wilderness. Smaller communities such as Stony Man, Kimball, and Vaughn are connected by a network of rural roads that trace the terrain of Kibler Hill and the many hollows that descend from the Blue Ridge.
