Why go

A journey you can begin before the drive

Survey West Virginia from its highest point, then descend through mountain lakes and overlooks that reveal how elevation shapes weather, forests, water, and views.

Travel deeper

A good trip begins with a better story.

Watch elevation change the temperature, vegetation, weather, water, visibility, and even the feeling of the drive between mountain stops.
