About Mount Marshall Overlook

Mount Marshall Overlook sits along Skyline Drive at about mile 19 and stands roughly 2,850 feet high. Visitors can look southeast across the Piedmont, the rolling land east of the mountains. The National Park Service lists it as a scenic viewpoint and photo spot. The surrounding land was once part of a colonial grant called the Manor of Leeds, and it was later bought by a speculator named John Marshall, who went on to serve as Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court.
