Not all of West Virginia's beauty is on the surface. Plenty of subterranean adventures await discovery throughout the state. Commercial caves such as Lost World Caverns, Organ Cave, Smoke Hole Caverns and Seneca Caverns are underground attractions that amaze thousands of visitors every year. West Virginia is also a perfect destination for boaters and canoeists from novice to expert.

West Virginia, "Americas Best Whitewater", offers nearly 2,000 miles of mountain streams coursing through the fabled Appalachians. Our rivers are unbeatable for beauty, history, excitement and accessibility to anyone with a sense of adventure and a love of the outdoors. No experience is necessary, as guides direct the paddlers through foaming whitewater, steering between rocks and over splashing waves. Abandoned coal mining towns, scenic waterfalls and tall tales from your guides are among the added attractions.
