What are some other fun winter activities in West Virginia?
We absolutely love hiking during the cold-weather months in the Mountain State, and Grandview, a former West Virginia State Park that's now run by the National Park Service, is famous for offering some of the best views of the famed New River Gorge to be had anywhere in West Virginia. If it's an epic view you're after, then the best time to visit this park is in the winter, when the leaves have fallen from the trees, and you can see through their branches to the mountain terrain beyond. You can really try any of the Grandview overlooks or trails for excellent views that are hidden behind the trees for most of the rest of the year. Have we convinced you yet? Learn more here!
