Blackwater Falls State Park, nestled in the Allegheny Mountains, covers 2,358 acres and features scenic trails, dense forests, and beautiful waterfalls. The park's highlight is the 57-foot Blackwater Falls, known for its amber waters, and scenic overlooks that are some of the most photographed in the state. The park includes over 20 miles of short and extended trails, a campground with 65 tent and trailer sites, and a camp store, which is great for resupplying if you're hiking the Allegheny Trail. There is also a lodge and a nice restaurant, perfect for a comfortable overnight stay to explore more of this beautiful area.

The Yellow Birch Trail is one of the least trafficked paths within Blackwater Falls State Park. The trail follows yellow blazes and trail markers the entire time while passing through a dense part of the forest. It eventually connects to a couple other paths in the park's trail network.

If you take the Gentle Trail from the main parking area, it's only a couple hundred meters to the overlook of Blackwater Falls. This is a pretty distant viewpoint, but it's a different perspective than the normal head-on view of the falls. Even though it's really close to the parking lot, it's not usually a very crowded spot.

Pendleton Point Overlook offers an awesome view down into the valley and gorge that makes up Blackwater Falls State Park. The overlook is close to the parking lot and is one of the viewpoints within the park that is often visited by car. If you prefer to explore by foot, you can easily link this overlook to other viewpoints via the singletrack trails within the park's boundaries.

Canaan Valley Resort State Park is one of the largest state parks in West Virginia, and is a great option for those who would like to experience the outdoors without sacrificing amenities. In addition to hiking and biking trails, there are many lodging options available as well as a ski hill and golf course.

The technical ride to the top is worth it, as you will be rewarded with spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding valley. After taking in the scenery, enjoy a short downhill ride back to the trailhead.
