West Virginia is another of our favorite recreation
states. They have a nice variety of things to see and do including hiking, skiing,
white water rafting, and camping. They also have a GREAT steam railroad at
Cass.

Babcock is probably one of the nices parks in W. Virginia. It is located on the east
side of the New River down in a gorge. The cabins are really cozy and nice. There are
plenty of activities too. 03/31/2002

Blackwater Falls is a beautiful park in Winter or Summer. Although the campground
leaves something to be desired, the park is still great. We visit often. 01/03/03

Cathedral is a great little park for a day visit. There is scenic, easy hiking and a
nice picnic area. We stopped around May 19, 2001 and again in January or 2002. We
enjoyed both visits. 01/03/02

Harper's Ferry National Historic Park
is obviously not a state park. But it's a must see for W. Virginia visitors. Not only
does it hold a lot of history, but it has some great hikes and beautiful scenery. There
are more photos of Harper's Ferry on
my railroad page under
CSX, Cumberland Sub.

Holly River State Park,
is just a few miles west of Kumbrabow. They have cabins as well, but they have
electricity and indoor plumbing. There are also alot of other things going on there
too.
|
Kumbrabow State Forest
has some nice hiking and
some great cabins if you don't mind not having electricity or running water. Let's
take a look.
|
Lost River State Park,
is near the Washington, D.C. metro area. That means it could be crowded on-season. But
we faced no crowds the first weekend in Nov. 2001. We had a great time. Come see what
there is to do. 01/03/2002

North Bend State Park,
is in the north-central part of the state. It has plenty to do and includes a lodge
and modern cabins. There is easy access to the 72 mile N. Bend Rail Trail that offers
great hiking and biking.

Tygart Lake Area I have group three parks on this page because they are within
an hour of Tygart Lake. These include Tygart Lake, Prickett's Fort and Valley Falls
State Parks. They are all in the Grafton-Fairmont area.
