The wheeling waterfront is beautiful. Be sure to check out the giant wooden swing for two. One of two in the northern panhandle, the second is tucked away on a side trail in Thomlinson Run state park New Cumberland Wv. If you’d like to cross or go out on the wheeling suspension bridge, currently closed to car traffic, the most direct route is water st to main but it’s an intense uphill battle. The longer easier way is to go down to 14th, cut across to Market st, turn left and up to 10th. Pretty low, slow traffic and along the way you’ll pass some really good restaurants and a cool plaza area. When you turn on 10th you’re presented with a great full view of the wheeling suspension bridge designed by Roebling.

Great spot to park. They recently added a porta John just 3/4 mile to the west across the Wv/Pa state line. Previously the next one was in Burgettstown or a half mile before the Harmon Creek trail head.

After the rain storm today there were lots of broken branches on the trail.

The McDonald Trestle, an impressive feature of the Montour Trail, offers breathtaking vistas spanning 962 feet as it gracefully traverses over the Panhandle Trail. Accessible via the "connector trail" north of the bridge on the Montour Trail or west of the bridge on the Panhandle Trail, this scenic bridge provides an unforgettable experience for trail enthusiasts seeking stunning views of the surrounding landscape.

Great views from the Wheeling Heritage Path of the Wheeling Suspension Bridge. From 1849 to 1851, it was the largest suspension bridge in the world.

The Hempfield Tunnel was built in 1906 for the railway lines running into Wheeling. It has recently been refurbished and is accessible from the Wheeling Heritage Trail.

A humble marker for the state boundary!

An impressive ride over the Wheeling Suspension Bridge, which dates back to 1847. The bridge was the first to span a major river west of the Appalachian Mountains.
