Hike the Grandview Rim Trail
Visit the highest point in New River Gorge National Park and Preserve! The main overlook at Grandview give spectacular views of a horseshoe bend of the New River. The Grandview Rim Trail connects the Main Overlook to two other overlooks, North Overlook and Turkey Spur Overlook. This moderate 1.6 mile (one-way) trail takes you along the ridge at Grandview, through the forest overlooking the gorge. Look for wildlife along the trail and enjoy the blooming rhododendren in the spring time (typically around May).
