North Fork Trail Trailhead

Super pretty hike. Takes about 3 hours round trip if you keep moving. Moderately challenging but really not too bad, perfect workout.

It's a nonstop uphill hike until you get to the top, but the views from the top are worth it!

Drove 4 hrs from RVA to Cabins, WV to hike the summit. From the first step it was 1 1\4 hrs of heart pounding steep ascent. Shale underfooting on the lower portion, and relentless scattered rocks elsewhere keeps you constantly vigilant. The false summit was worth it. Cool cliffs and great valley views. According to GPS, there was more trail, but not close enough to get same good views. Eventually, it would lead to Chimney Top, but I wasn't sure where or when, so I eventually turned around. The descent was faster, but hazardous due to steepness and rocks. Be sure to bring trekking poles. It's a major workout!!

Backpacked the North Fork Mountain Trail, Monongahela NF in WV with a friend this weekend. My three day, two overnight, 24.7 mile adventure was physically challenging, but the epic views were worth the effort.
