My wife and I decided that we wanted to hike to the Sand Caves and White Rocks. I thought the hike might be fairly hard for us, as we have not hiked much in the last two years. I was right.

I had heard about the Sands Caves for most of my life, but I had never been there. 

Our journey on foot to Sand Cave began at the parking area for Civic Park in Ewing, Virginia. Civic Park is in the eastern part of the Cumberland Gap National Historical Park. The trail is mostly dirt and rocks for the duration of the hike.

Here is a video of our trip. The video is also in 4K.

This was a tough hike for us, but we were able to complete it. It was a fun trip, and the area is beautiful.

We logged 13 miles on the hike, which is a little more than the actual round trip of just the trail. 

It might be nice to go do this again someday, but I would want to be in a little better hiking shape so I could enjoy it even more. 

I hope you enjoyed the video.

If you are so inclined, there are a lot of pictures on my personal Facebook page

Thanks
