Experience Comfort and Convenience

The Lower New River throws big, splashy summer rapids that are family-friendly and heart-pumping. Come fall, the Gauley River unleashes legendary Class V rapids, with expert outfitters throughout the gorge ready to guide the adventure.

 Bullet-hard Nuttall sandstone makes the gorge a world climbing destination — Endless Wall, Bridge Buttress, and beyond, from first-timer sport lines to testpiece trad.

Long Point Trail frames the classic bridge view; the Endless Wall Trail traces cliff-top overlooks; Kaymoor drops you to the river on old miners’ steps.

The Arrowhead Trails pack 13 miles of purpose-built, IMBA-designed singletrack just outside town — flowy and fast, beginner loops up to technical lines, and many waterfall trails.

Clip in and walk the steel catwalk under the New River Gorge Bridge — 876 feet above the river, straight out across the gorge. Not for the faint of heart.

Canopy tours and zip lines launch you over the gorge’s forest and side creeks. Multiple options for guided lines for every nerve level.

 America’s newest national park — 70,000+ acres of ancient river canyon. Home to the iconic gorge bridge, world-class whitewater, 1,400+ climbing routes, and miles of rim-top trails.  Right in town!

 The “Little Bahamas of the East” — West Virginia’s largest lake, with turquoise water clear enough to see the bottom. Swim at Battle Run, paddle the coves, climb the cliffs, or just float the day away.  Only 20 minutes away!
