Whatever you need, start your search here. West Virginia offers nearly 2,000 miles of mountain streams coursing through the fabled Appalachians. Our rivers are unbeatable for beauty, history, excitement and accessibility to anyone with a sense of adventure and a love of the outdoors. No experience is necessary, as guides direct the paddlers through foaming water for some of the best white water rafting around, steering between rocks and over splashing waves. Abandoned coal mining towns, scenic waterfalls and tall tales from your guides are among the extra added attractions.
Fishing is a time-honored tradition and with all of the opportunities that exist, it is no wonder.
An extensive trout stocking program, that supplies over 180 streams and impoundments with trout each year, provides anglers with year-round fishing opportunities. Float trips for smallmouth bass are very popular on many rivers as well, and the Mountain Lakes region is home to super largemouth bass fishing. For a family outing or some time alone on a mountain stream or scenic lake, this is the ideal destination. From hardwood forests and open farmland to riverbottoms and high mountains of laurel, West Virginia provides hunters with over 1.3 million acres of public land including 60 wildlife management areas throughout the state. Abundant populations of whitetail deer, eastern wild turkey and other game, combined with beautiful scenery make for the perfect hunt.
