Reviews
"Franklin Cliffs Overlook is another easy in and out pull off along the beautiful road that is Skyline Drive. The view is nice. There doesn’t seem to be much in the way of cliffs, yet cliffs is in the name. Perhaps I’m missing something…"
"There are lots of overlooks along Skyline Drive, and Franklin Cliffs has one of the best views."
"Obviously from the photos we hit Franklin Cliffs Overlook when there was heavy fog. However, we could still get a good look at the area and what we could see, it was amazing."
"I think this is a very beautiful place to be to take a look around the Shenandoah Valley and take a look at the Fall Foliage and the beautiful colors the leaves have turned and would highly suggest people to come and take a visit while the colors are still here because being in an atmosphere of The Great Outdoors is very relaxing and will relieve you of a lot of stress. It is a place I love to go and do freelance photography at and I have a free lifetime pass to any national park in America since I have a disability and if you have a disability you are able to sign up for one also instead of paying a fee every time you come to the park."
