- Rockfish Gap is a wind gap located in the Blue Ridge Mountains between Charlottesville and Waynesboro, Virginia, United States, through Afton Mountain, which is frequently used to refer to the gap. Joining the Shenandoah Valley to the Piedmont region of the state, it is the site of the mountain crossing of Interstate 64, U.S. Route 250, and the former Blue Ridge Railroad which later became part of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway and is currently part of the CSX line. With an elevation of about 1,900 feet (580 m), it is one of the lowest gaps between Manassas Gap and the James River. Rockfish Gap lies along a drainage divide between southeast-flowing streams that drain to the James River and northwest-flowing streams in the Shenandoah River system. The scenic Skyline Drive, which runs north through Shenandoah National Park to Front Royal, and the Blue Ridge Parkway, which runs south to a point near Cherokee, North Carolina, each generally following the mountain ridgetops, meet a short distance north of Rockfish Gap (such that the roadway on the bridge over the gap is actually part of the Blue Ridge Parkway). The Appalachian Trail also passes through the gap. (en)
- Le Rockfish Gap est un col routier des montagnes Blue Ridge situé dans l'État de Virginie, aux États-Unis, à la limite du comté d'Augusta et du comté de Nelson. Franchi à 580 mètres d'altitude par l'Interstate 64 dans la direction est-ouest, il marque aussi la liaison entre la Blue Ridge Parkway, dont il est le point le plus septentrional, et la Skyline Drive, dans le parc national de Shenandoah, dont il est le point le plus méridional. Le sentier des Appalaches passe aussi par le col dans la direction nord-sud en suivant la ligne de crête du massif. Depuis la création de ce district historique le 28 avril 1997, Rockfish Gap est une propriété contributrice au district historique de Skyline Drive. (fr)
