Map or Directions
In addition to a number of recreational activities, this dramatically scenic and diverse 70,000 acre park offers a rich natural cultural history as well as educational opportunities. Also, once a year the New River Gorge Bridge is opened for parachute BASE jumpers, and Amtrak is available at 3 stops in the park. There are 4 primitive, riverside camp areas with limited restroom facilities and no drinking water. They are Stone Cliff Beach off H 25 near Thurmond; Army Camp off H 41 near Prince; Grandview Sandbar on Glade Creek Road, and Glade Creek at the end of Glade Creek Road. There are no electric or water hookups at the campgrounds.
