The Greenbrier River Trail
This Rails to Trails conversion is a classic! Recently designated one of 50 Millenium Legacy Trails by the White House Millenium Council and U.S. Department of Transportation. The 78 miles of trail, which follows the Greenbrier River to Cass was constructed by mule and hand labor over 100 years ago to transport timber from Pocahontas and Randolph counties. The "GRT" is now a West Virginia State Park. Serving as a recreational trail since 1980 , it has been acclaimed by several national outdoor recreation publications for it's accessibility and multiple use characteristics. With an elevation change of less than 1% over the entire 78 miles, it is great for children, seniors and bikepacking trips of up to 3 days.Combine an overnight stay in the railroad towns of Cass or Durbin and add the 27 mile West Fork Trail in Northern Pocahontas County to your checklist of great trail rides.
This may be the only place in "The Mountain State" where you’ll find over 100 miles of flat terrain for your off road cycling pleasure !!
