Living history
Pricketts Fort
Pricketts Fort State Park recreates the 1774 fort and is home to 188 acres that includes the Mon Rail Trail, the Monongahela River, a historic graveyard and special events. The state park also includes the Job Prickett House, a blacksmith shop, an amphitheater, restaurant and visitor center.

Valley Falls
Mountain bike, kayak, hike or sit by the falls. Part of West Virginia’s Waterfall Trail, this state park offers one of the most accessible waterfalls on the list! And right in front of that waterfall, is one of the coveted Almost Heaven swings.
