Madison, VA to Dulles Airport (IAD)

Old Rag Mountain is one of the most sought-after hiking destinations in the Eastern U.S. Located just outside Madison, it attracts thousands of adventurers each year for its rugged trail, rock scrambles, and spectacular summit views. The hike is roughly 9 miles round-trip and rated as strenuous, but the payoff is worth it—especially on clear days when views stretch for miles. Parking at the trailhead is limited and often fills up early in the day. Many visitors enjoy being dropped off at the base and picked up later to avoid the hassle of finding a spot. The trail winds through forests, over boulders, and up steep inclines before opening up to breathtaking panoramas. It’s recommended for experienced hikers or those in good physical condition. Along the way, you’ll encounter wildflowers, wildlife, and some of the most iconic photo ops in Virginia’s backcountry. Our taxi service ensures safe and timely drop-offs and pickups so you can enjoy your hike stress-free.
