Trail Overview

The route travels primarily through Monongahela National Forest on maintained Forest Service gravel roads. A section of the route passes through private land and rolling farmland on gravel road. The ascent from the FSR to the summit at Spruce Knob is fully paved. Spruce Knob is the highest point in West Virginia with 360-degree expansive views. The route passes by two NF camping areas and several dispersed sites can also be found. Spruce Knob Lake offers fishing and kayaking opportunities. Numerous hiking trailheads are located along the route. There's very little cell service anywhere along the route.
