Gaudineer Knob, at 4,449 feet, is the highest point of Shavers Mountain and is recognized for its untouched red spruce forest—remains of old-growth woodland that escaped logging in this area. Situated in the Monongahela National Forest, this overlook offers stunning views of the rolling West Virginia highlands. A short loop trail winds through the towering trees, leading to a bench with a panoramic vista of the Shavers Fork Valley. There are picnic tables and a vault toilet, making it a perfect spot to take a break, have a snack, and take in the incredible scenery.
