The Mid-Ohio Valley
Traveling south, visitors will find the Mid-Ohio Valley. This region is perfect for any traveler looking for beautiful scenery, natural attractions, and small town history. In fact, you can find a festival to celebrate almost anything from walnuts to heritage to flowers to wine and even mountain music. The small town searcher should visit Harrisville where you will find the oldest five and dime store in the nation, Berdine's Five and Dime. You can still find penny candy and plenty of other necessities in its original building. For those looking to do a bit of camping, look no farther than Mountwood Park. Featuring a 50-acre lake for the fishermen and plenty of trails for hikers, bikers, and ATVers, it’s a great family destination that is great for the solo traveler too. A great attraction to see is the New River Gorge Bridge near Fayetteville. Every October, BASE jumpers are allowed to parachute off this 876-foot bridge that boasts the world’s longest single arch steel span and is the second tallest bridge in the country. Every visitor will leave this region feeling peaceful and rejuvenated. |
