Hiking WV: New River Gorge: Brooks and Sandstone
We didn’t take a long hike at New River Gorge on Saturday, but the trails made up for that by being very steep.
Location: New River Gorge
Trail: Big Branch Trail
Distance: 1.5 miles
Elevation: 1256 – 1713
We hiked counter-clockwise, so for the first half of the trail we were gasping for breath and wondering why anyone wanted to hike this trail.
Then we started down, following the creek.
