I'm local & this place never fails to astound me. Breathtaking in any season, the main overlook is spectacular in the fall. The light is good for photos until evening. Misty mornings are awesome as the mountaintops and river emerge from the clouds. My favorite trail is Castle Rock which travels a bench just below the cliffs. It is narrow and briefly steep at each end so wear good boots. Canyon Rim trail is an easy walk to Turkey Spur at the end of the ridge. There are stairs to the top of this rock formation, and another view of the New River as it winds around Stretcher Neck. Turkey Spur can also be reached by car during the warmer months. On the road are 3 additional picnic areas with playgrounds & shelters. There are 2 loop trails at one of the areas. The North overlook is located at another. There is a service road at the 3rd that goes about 2.5 mi. to the river. Come see this bit of our wild, wonderful state!
Grandview Park have some of the best views in WV you will love it I grew up going to this park and I still go back a few times a year and I still love it there
Just gorgeous! Only spent a short time here, but what I saw was breathtaking! Seemed to have nice trails, was very clean and ample parking.
What a beautiful little park this is. This time of year the leaves are beautiful and the over look that shows the river is very pretty! they have a play ground for kids too which is really nice.
I visited Grand view during my first ever trip to West Virginia and it was absolutely breathtaking! Its a must see for all who visit. I took pictures there and the views look amazingly surreal even on a phone camera! Please visit this site! You will love it!!!
It's been on our bucket list for a while and this year we made the stop en route to Florida. Just the two of us but we know our teenagers would have loved it too. Very dramatic scenery only a short walk from the car. Enjoyed seeing an outdoor play within the park the same night. THE GOOD: World class scenery steps from the car, the Ranger who was waiting at the lookout with answers and great conversationTHE NOT SO GOOD: The canopy trail was closed, but we can't control Mother Nature!ADVICE: Do the look out trail and enjoy an outdoor play while you're there!
Grandview is such a beautiful park. Amazing scenic views, fun trails, outdoor activities, and nice picnic shelters. At least go for the main overlook and you won't be disappointed with such a view. Some of the trails could use some fixing up as there are debris blocking parts, broken benches, etc. But overall, a beautiful park with lots to offer!
Lovely State Park. There is an amphitheater but of course its seasonal. They have many trails from beginners to the more advanced hiker, playground, basket and volley ball courts but the main reason for visiting is the beautiful overlook. Anytime of of year the view is breathtaking but i recommend the fall.
This park is quiet and has lots to see. It has many trails and beautiful views. It is a great place to grab some charcoal and grill something quick and enjoy the majestic view of the New River
We only live minutes from Grandview but it is always one of our family favorite places to go. My wife and I actually got married at the overlook. Gorgeous views, nice peaceful trails with some great scenery. Nice play area for the kids. Good places to cook out or picnic. The outdoor amphitheater is a super fun thing for everyone too! All around there is something for everyone here.
