The West Virginia Rails-to-Trails Council
TURNING OLD RAILWAYS INTO PATHS FOR RECREATION
The West Virginia Rails-to-Trails Council (WVRTC) seeks to promote the development and enjoyment of Rail-Trails in West Virginia. We welcome inquiries and participation from across the state and across the country.
The West Virginia Rails-to-Trails Council is a collection of individuals, civic groups and organizations who have joined together to promote the development and enjoyment of Rail-Trails in West Virginia.
For recreational users, we offer information about the Rail-Trails in this state, distances, maps, and available services along the way.
For managers of Rail-Trail projects, we provide tips and advice about wayside management, signage and construction.
Use of the term "Rail-Trail":
As Rails-to-Trails projects become widespread, it is handy to recognize the unique benefits of this type of recreational resource. When we speak of rail-trails, people can expect that these trails will have gentle or level grades and wide rights of way suitable for multiple uses: walking, bicycling, or horseback riding. With bridges over streams and tunnels through hills, rail-trails also offer clear and easy means to negotiate geographic obstacles.
