Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
Truly a “narrow” trail, the Narrow Gauge Trail makes for an exciting hike, but moun-
tain bikers should be experienced if they want to tackle this trail.
DIRECTIONS
To reach both ends of the trail, from US Hwy. 19, take the US Hwy. 60 exit
and head east for 10 miles to WV Route 41, heading south. The trail can be ac-
cessed from the campground, which is 2 miles south of Hwy. 60 at Clifftop (the
trail begins on the service road between the campgrounds and the stables). This
entrance is open only in the summer.
The trail also can be accessed from the main park entrance, a little farther
south on WV Route 41, behind Cabin #13. Follow the signs to Cabin #13 from
the entrance: Go behind the Glade Creek Grist Mill and follow that road (Old
Sewell Road) past the cabins to the official start of the trail at the fork of the
creek. The trail is downhill from the cabins to the campground.
