The river receives water from several tributaries, including the North Fork, South Fork, and the Opequon Creek. There are no major dams on the river near Front Royal. The river experiences seasonal trends in flow, with peak flows typically occurring in the spring due to snowmelt and rainfall, and low flows in the summer and fall. The hydrology of the river supports a diverse ecosystem of fish and wildlife, including smallmouth bass and migratory birds. An interesting fact is that the Shenandoah River was featured in the 1972 film "Deliverance".
