Mountain Biking

Mountain Biking in West Virginia
Thousands of miles of biking trails wind through the West Virginia countryside, following its beautiful rivers through national parkland and wandering the peaks of its highest mountains amid national forest.
Greenbrier River Trail
The Greenbrier River Trail follows a grade of packed limestone along the beautiful Greenbrier River 78 miles from points near Cass and Lewisburg. Towering mountain backdrops and wonderful historic sites abound along the route.
C&O Canal Trail
The easy, level, 184-mile trail follows the towpath of a Revolutionary-Era canal along the north side of the Potomac River from Washington, D.C. A national historical park of rare beauty, the trail intersects the Appalachian Trail at Harper's Ferry.
North Bend Trail
The North Bend Trail follows a former railbed 72 miles through woodlands and small farms from points near I-77 at Parkersburg and I-79 at Clarksburg. Small towns and historic sites along the way recall the region's long-faded hey-day as America's first major oil-field.
Decker's Creek Trail
The Decker's Creek Trail ascends its namesake stream 19 miles from its mouth on the Monongahela River at Morgantown into the highlands pastures in historic Arthurdale. Along the way it passes through thick rhododendron and beneath many overhanging cliffs.
West Fork of Greenbrier Trail
The West Fork Rail-Trail follows one of Appalachia's best fly-fishing streams, the West Fork of the Greenbrier River, 26 miles from Durbin to Glady. Its southern end is 10-miles north of the northern end of the Greenbrier River Trail.
West Fork of Monongahela Trail
This level, 14.5-mile trail of packed limestone follows the sleepy West Fork of the Monongahela River from Shinnston, near Clarksburg, to Mary Lou Retton Youth Park, near Fairmont. Both ends are convenient to Interstate 79.
New River Gorge Trails
The National Park Service maintains nine miles of developed biking trails in the New River Gorge National River near Fayetteville, all convenient to U.S. 19. Trails follow the flank of the gorge past beautiful views and to old ghost towns.
Allegheny Highlands Trail
The 21-mile Allegheny Highlands Trail has been completed from Elkins to Parsons, following the glady farmlands along Leading Creek and over Cheat Mountain. A second leg of this trail is proposed to ascend from Parsons to Davis through the Blackwater Canyon.
Cranberry Wilderness Trails
More than 50 miles of moderate-to-difficult trails network in the Monongahela National Forest's Cranberry Wilderness, a highly protected landscape of spectacular mountain scenery and rare plantlife.
Holly River Trails
Fifteen miles of developed trail have been opened to bikers at Holly River State Park. Trails access overlooks, waterfalls, sphagnum bogs, and lofty Potato Knob in one of West Virginia's most remote mountain regions.
Pipestem Trails
More than 15 miles of biking trails have been developed at Pipestem Resort State Park. Five paved, gravel, and dirt trails wind across the wooded tablelands and descend into the canyon of the Bluestone National Scenic River.
