New River Gorge National Park
New River Gorge National Park is spread out and encompasses the area around the river. There are lots of overlooks and trails. The Grandview and Turkey Spur overlooks were our favorites. The New River Gorge Bridge is an engineering marvel which should not be missed. There are overlooks and trails near the bridge too. Two interesting things to do in the park are rafting and the bridge walk. We stayed in Beckley, West Virginia at the Courtyard.
We visited the park as part of a vork road trip and included Mammoth Cave National Park, Shenandoah National Park, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
