7의 Piney View가지 명소 & 주요 장소

No water flow right now (September 2, 2024) but still interesting rock formations to see

Small waterfall in a beautiful setting. Not overly spectacular but a good turning point for a hike. Attention: the branch path branches off a good 100m later (i.e. upstream) from the main path than shown on the map.

The Castle Rock Trail begins near Grandview Main Overlook and ends where it intersects the Grandview Rim Trail after about 1 km (.6 miles). The hike goes along huge rock walls and below overhanging cliffs. Castle Rock Trail and Grandview Rim Trail can make a great loop of about 1.6 km (almost 1 mile)

Turkey Spur Overlook is at the end of the Grandview Rim Trail about 2.6 km (1.6 miles) from the Visitor Center lying atop a huge rock outcrop. It offers stunning views more than 300 m (almost 1,000 feet) above the New River. The National Park Service had improved the overlook’s wooden boardwalk in 2015 but it was burned in an arson attack a few months later. In partnership with Friends of New River Gorge National River funds were raised for reconstruction and the Overlook was reopened in June 2017.

After a short walk from the parking area and Grandview Visitor Center, you will enjoy views of the New River at Grandview Main Overlook about 425 m above the river. You can see a railway and the town of Quinnimont, where the first coal was shipped out of the gorge in 1873. https://www.nps.gov/neri/planyourvisit/grandview.htm

In 1939, Grandview became part of the West Virginia State Park system. Fifty years later, Grandview was transferred to the National Park Service. The Grandview Visitor Center is open seasonally, normally Memorial Day through Labor Day, from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
