Οι καλύτερες διαδρομές ποδηλασίας δρόμου στη Δυτική Βιρτζίνια

With the Cheat River flowing through its heart, Parsons is a great little town. It has shops and cafes where you can refuel on your trip. Don't miss the historic Tucker County Bank Building in the center.

This riverside park is a great spot to take a break and enjoy views of the river. There are picnic areas, a kayak launch and restroom facilities.

The Core Arboretum is a historic 91-acre arboretum owned by West Virginia University, on Monongahela Boulevard in Morgantown, West Virginia. It is also accessible via the Caperton Trail, a popular multi-use trail that runs right through it. The arboretum is free and open to the public daily. There are several hundred species of native WV trees, shrubs, and many of the larger trees are likely over 200 years old. In the spring, you can also see beautiful, ephemeral wildflowers.

Runners can embrace wild beauty and history while logging miles through West Virginia University's Core Arboretum. Spanning 91 acres adjacent to the Monongahela River, the open green space has over 3 miles of peaceful forested trails wrapping around old growth trees, some estimated at over 200 years old. Lush native species, wildflowers, and diverse wildlife habitats unlock glimpses of Appalachian nature at its finest. From steep hillsides to floodplain paths, the Arboretum named for ecologist Earl Core makes for terrain as fascinating to run as what may be spotted wandering its habitats.

Just to the north of the New River Gorge Bridge on Fayette Station Road (one-way), a climbing area access trail splits off and turns back uphill. Nothing prevents hikers from checking out the impressive buttresses and climbing, though hikers should defer to climbers on maintaining safe distances from climbers and belayers.

Though perhaps less frequently visited than Long Point or other overlooks further south in the New River Gorge, Lovers Leap is certainly worthy of the efforts taken to reach it on foot.

The Mon River Rail Trail South runs from Morgan town to Prickett’s Fort State Park. It is an 18 mile long, wooded trail that follows the Monongahela River and is completely traffic-free.

The trail is a walking and biking route through the city of Charleston, West Virginia. As it is closed to motor traffic, it is a great way to move through the city. It follows the Kanawha River.
