Since we’d already visited three parks, we decided to stop at Carnifex Ferry on the way, to make it four for the day, six for the weekend (a record for us).<\/p>\n

Carnifex Ferry overlooks the Gauley River Canyon, near Summersville (Land of Speedtraps<\/a>). We had no idea what to expect, since it’s a Civil War Battlefield, but it had an utterly gorgeous view of the Gauley River Canyon. If you’re in the area, you should definitely divert her for the view.<\/p>\n

Location: Carnifex Ferry Battlefield State Park<\/a>
\nTrail: Patterson Trail<\/a>
\nDistance: 1.2 miles
\nElevation: 157 feet (there is a very steep drop down to the Copperhead Overlook)<\/p>\n
