Description Suggest change

Blackwater Falls, despite being a popular site for tourism in the state, is not known for its climbing. However, this is a wild area filled with rock. Unfortunately, most of it is hidden under a blanket of Rhododendron, making it near impossible to access. But for those willing to explore, there is significant potential. For those not willing to explore, there are a collection of quality problems that are roadside.

Getting There Suggest change

From Davis, WV, drive down Blackwater Falls road until you’re in the park.
