This is linkup of two of the best mountains that Shenandoah has to offer, the classic Old Rag and Roberts Mountain - you get to enjoy both sides of the valley in one day! For this route, start at the new parking lot for Old Rag and run the route clockwise, heading up Old Rag first, then descending the backside of the mountain. Once you link back up with the fire roads then head up Old Rag Fire Road going towards Roberts Mountain. After about another mile or so you'll connect with Roberts Mountain Trail.
