Silver Spring to Charlottesville, VA via Fort Valley Road and Route 211

This is, IMHO, a much nicer albeit longer way to go to Charlottesville from Silver Spring. It's a very pretty, twisty, and mountainous route.

I66 out to Front Royal.
Left on 55.
Follow over the river and then right.
Left on Fort Valley Road. It starts to get good here.
Continue on to Camp Roosevelt Road, route 675. (If you end up on a dirt road you've missed a turn.)

There's a wonderful overlook you can stop at at one of the switchbacks.

Left on 211 business in downtown Luray.

Continue East on 211 up over the mountains. Great curves.

Then make your way via side roads down to Route 29 South and Charlottesville.
