Awesome for hiking! Had some family in from out of town and we decided a local hike was the move. We had an excellent time and the temperature was about 10° cooler than the greater charleston area, which make the hike so enjoyable. The trails are a little confusing as they tend to overlap, causing multiple trail markers to be on the trees. We also saw an abandoned mine that was flooded and covered over.

Stopped in today and saw Clark at the Nature Center, he's so nice & always a wealth of information. Recently the bathrooms have been remodeled and are so clean! The hiking and biking are only outdone by the new swimming holes put in. So much family fun. Fall in the forest was spectacular. So gorgeous and peaceful the new work looks spectacular.

The park is really nice to be located so near Charleston West Virginia. Plenty of bike trails for the adventurists and hikers. Gun range and camping. Creeks for playing in. Best thing is there is absolutely no cell service!

So much to explore and see. We did around trip of about an hour and half with 30ish mins at the overlook. Easy place to explore some of West Virginia's beauty
