Plan Your Summer Trip

Make this summer one to remember in the 63rd National Park — the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. Hike or mountain bike through miles of scenic trails leading to some of West Virginia’s best views. For the ultimate thrill, paddle world-class whitewater rapids or join a guided rock climbing trip

No visit is complete without seeing the New River Gorge Bridge. Stretching 3,030 feet across the Gorge, it is one of the state’s most recognizable landmarks. Take in the view from a nearby overlook, experience the rush of a Bridge Walk tour 851 feet above the river or hop aboard a jet boat for a unique perspective from the water below.

While exploring the New River Gorge area, visit the charming town of Fayetteville. Wander its historic streets lined with local shops and eateries.
