Fodor's Expert Review Blue Bend Recreation Area
White Sulpher Springs
Tucked inside the Monongahela National Forest, a 20-minute drive northeast of White Sulphur Springs, this is one of the best spots in the area for hiking, swimming, and trout fishing. The 5-mile-long Blue Bend Loop Trail is popular throughout the year and has three lookout spots as well as a wooden shelter at its highest point. The forest is home to foxes, deer, coyotes, bobcats, black bears, and mink. The on-site campground is open March through November.
