New River Gorge National River
The 5.6 mile Glade Creek Trail follows an abandoned narrow-gauge
railroad along Glade Creek and offers an enjoyable stroll at a very
moderate grade, and is popular with hikers of all ages and abilities, as
well as being a favorite destination for those in search of swimming
holes.
A number of cascades and small waterfalls add to the trail's
attraction, and provide a challenge for the whitewater kayaker. The lower
part of Glade Creek is also a WV Catch & Release trout stream, so bring
your fly rod or fishing pole along with you.
