1965 Map of Luray
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
The South Fork Shenandoah River winds through the heart of the Page Valley, flanked by the high ridges of Massanutten Mountain to the west and the Blue Ridge to the east. This 1960s landscape shows the town of Luray as a regional hub centered on the Norfolk and Western railroad and the famed Luray Caverns. While the river valley supports farming settlements like Springfield and Oak Hill, the eastern slopes are preserved within Shenandoah National Park, featuring the Jeremys Run Trail. Local community life is anchored by a dense network of country churches, including Bethlehem Ch and Antioch Ch, alongside recreational landmarks like the Drive-in Theater and the Fairgrounds. The topography reveals the complex hydrology of the region, from the cavern-riddled Cave Hill to the controlled waters of the Luray Reservoir.
