About
Dundo Group Campground offers a secluded base camp for organized groups exploring Shenandoah National Park's South District. Located at milepost 83.7 on Skyline Drive, the Appalachian Trail passes directly through the site, providing easy access to Doyles River Falls and other popular South District hikes. The campground occupies the northern end of a one-way loop, with the southern portion reserved for day-use picnicking. Three large, grassy tent sites sit beneath native oaks and mature pines, each accommodating groups of 7-20 people with a maximum of 5 vehicles. Sites include fire rings, picnic tables, and food storage lockers to secure food from bears. Vault toilets and water are available on site. The Loft Mountain Camp Store is 3.7 miles north at Loft Mountain Campground, which also serves as the check-in location for Dundo. Interpretive ranger programs run at the Loft Mountain Amphitheater on summer weekends. Group camping fees are non-refundable with no discounts available, and camping is limited to 14 consecutive nights per year.
