BEST TOWNS & CITIES TO VISIT IN WEST VIRGINIA
|
These towns and cities in West Virginia are generally regarded as the most interesting to travelers:
✮ Fayetteville - a small town close to New River Gorge National Park & Preserve and many outdoor activities (including whitewater rafting)
✮ Harpers Ferry - a small town with a lively tourist historict district; Harpers Ferry National Historic Park and Appalachian Trail are both here
✮ Lewisburg - a very small city with an attractive and historic Main Street district that has boutique shops and art galleries
My favorite small town in West Virginia is Harpers Ferry. I think one day is generally enough time to spend exploring this town and the national historic park that is embedded within it. You could maybe do two days if you included a day hike on the Appalachian Trail, which passes directly through the town.
If you want to visit New River Gorge National Park and Preserve, stay in or near Fayetteville or Beckley.

BEST SCENIC DRIVES IN WEST VIRGINIA
|
Here is a list of the best scenic drives in West Virginia:
✮ Highland Scenic Highway - a seasonal 43-mile paved route that follows WV-39 and WV-150 through Monongahela National Forest
✮ Midland Trail (WV-60) - a 120-mile paved route from Charleston to White Sulphur Springs via Ansted; take a detour to New River Gorge
My favorite scenic drive in West Virginia is the Highland Scenic Highway. There are four scenic overlooks along this seasonal road. I believe the entire road is open in winter, but travel is highly discouraged from November to April as a 23-mile section on WV-150 is not maintained in winter.
The 20-mile section of WV-32 from
Harman to Thomas might also be a good drive, but I'm not sure if it has any scenic views or not. I know it leads to several great attractions though, including Blackwater Falls State Park and Canaan Valley State Park.
US-219 from Lewisburg to Elkins also seems like it would be a decent route to drive. I'm not sure if it has any scenic views of its own though.

✮ Panhandle Trail
Central & Southern West Virginia (including Charleston, Riverton, and White Sulphur Springs)
✮ Greenbrier River Trail - an outstanding 78-mile partially-paved rail trail that travels from North Caldwell to Cass; arguably WV's #1 rail trail
Both the Greenbrier River Trail and the Mon River Trail/Caperton Trail are considered amongst the premier rail trails in the United States. Take note that the Mon River Trail has two sections, but the Caperton Trail connects both of them. I'm not exactly sure why they don't just call the entire trail one name.
