Ever felt that pull toward a misty cascade, the roar of water over ancient rocks, and the promise of a secret spot few have found? West Virginia, the Mountain State, hides over 200 such gems, and this guidebook is your key to unlocking them all.
Hiking guides online are hit-or-miss, often lacking precise directions or up-to-date info. You end up lost on trails or settling for crowded viewpoints. Regional tourism maps help, but they skim the surface—missing the off-beat pours that make WV special.
This 134-page paperback organizes every major waterfall by the West Virginia Department of Commerce's regions, making planning a breeze.
