We can’t wait to get back there! That trip is a really special memory for us that we would really like to revist.

That was taken from Battle Run Campground along the bank of Summersville Lake.

We can not wait to get back to West Virginia. It completely blew us away. Every small corner of that state has got something interesting going on. Each valley, each river, a new discovery. We can’t wait to go back and spend some more time there.

We wish we had more time in the state! West Virginia just has so much to offer. Every valley, every river. There is just something magical. We can’t wait to go back and when we do, we’ll definitely hit up Canaan Valley and Green Bank.

As a trout fisherman I’ve traveled many of the roads and to many of the areas that you described. You obviously covered a lot of this beautiful state but I do wish you had found time to add the Canaan Valley and the great mountain towns of Davis and Thomas. They have lots to offer.

Also, Green Bank is a spectacular sight set in the radio quiet zone and further north is the highest point in West Virginia, Spruce Knob. So much more to see.

For sure you want to travel on Route 39 east from Richwood towards Mill Point. You’ll pass the Falls of Hills Creek and Cranberry Glades, both worthwhile stops. Before reaching Raintown, at the Cranberry Visitor Center, turn north onto Route 150 which is the Highland Scenic Highway. It runs through totally undeveloped mountain wilderness for 28 miles. When you reach the end follow Route 219 North to Snowshoe and take the 7 mile drive to the top of Snowshoe Mountain. Go down the back side of Snowshoe Mountain (Route 9/3) to Cass and visit the railroad and the Greenbrier River there. That’a a solid day trip from Richwood. Great lodging options at Snowshoe.

There is something here for everyone of every age, no matter the interest. The talent that lives among the hills here is unfathomable and neverending. And when you hear the term “almost heaven” you cannot truly believe it until you experience it and then you will understand. It’s an amazing place, and the people make you feel like you’ve been part of the family forever. I just do not think outsiders truly knows what we have to offer here.
