With a population density of just 10 people per square mile and 349,000 acres of State and National Forests it offers wide-open spaces in the truest sense. In those open spaces lie more than 800 miles of hiking and biking trails, the headwaters of eight rivers, the #1 ski resort in the Mid-Atlantic and the most scenic byways in the state of West Virginia. All within a county that boasts the highest average elevation of any county east of the Mississippi.
People are drawn to Pocahontas County for the hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, golfing, fishing and skiing, and for the raw, rare beauty of the mountains. Those who choose to live and play here do so because it offers them what they’ve really always wanted: a place to relax and just be.
