Spanning 919,000 acres, the Monongahela National Forest features hundreds of miles of equestrian, skiing, hiking and biking trails.
Rock climbers find Seneca Rocks a challenge and hikers enjoy viewing the fragile bogs of the Cranberry Glades from the established boardwalk trail.
The forest offers about 600 miles of coldwater streams and 90 percent of the available brook trout fishing in West Virginia.
There are two visitor centers in the forest, one is
in the Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area and the other is at Cranberry Mountain.
In the forest, there are 29 campgrounds and 14 picnic areas and in the forest itself there are more than 800 miles of trails.
Despite a wealth of developed recreation sites, the forest remains a haven for those seeking a backcountry or wilderness experience. There are five wilderness areas covering 78,131 acres.
