Seneca Rocks
Seneca Rocks is a giant wall of white rock that rises nearly 900 feet straight up from the green valley floor. It is one of the most photographed natural landmarks in all of West Virginia.
Rock climbers travel from all over the country to scale its steep cliffs. Families love the gentle trail to a viewing platform and the friendly visitor center at the bottom.
A Climber's Dream
The tall rock fins are famous for rock climbing, and on clear days you can spot tiny climbers high on the wall. Beginners can learn with local climbing schools and guides.
The Trail to the Top
A well-marked hiking trail winds up through the forest to an observation deck with a fantastic view. The walk is a fun challenge for kids and takes about an hour each way.
Mountain Weather
Summers are pleasant and cool in the shade, while autumn brings crisp air and colorful leaves. Winter can dust the rocks with snow, making them look even more dramatic.
