GREENBRIER RIVER TRAIL MAP WEST VIRGINIA

80 miles. While this is not really a wilderness trail, it runs alongside the Greenbrier River through some attractive rural and riverside scenery of southeast West Virginia, including some small towns. The trail follows an old railroad bed, and thus makes for easy backpacking. It’s also open to bicycling, horseback riding, and in the winter cross-country skiing.

Camping Regulations: A number of primitive camping areas are located along the trail, and camping is limited to these sites. Permits are not required, and except at a regular campground in Watoga State Park, no fees are charged.

For Further Information: Greenbrier River Trail, c/o Watoga State Park, Star Route 1, Box 252, Marlinton, WV 24954; (304)799-4087.
