New River Gorge
A rugged, white water river, flowing northward through deep canyons, the New River is among the oldest rivers on the
continent. The park encompasses over 70,000 acres of land along the New River, is rich in cultural and natural history,
and offers an abundance of scenic and recreational opportunities. Outdoor activities are very popular at New River Gorge
National River. Activities include whitewater boating, fishing, hunting, photography, sightseeing, picnicking, primitive
camping, recreational climbing, horseback riding, hiking, and mountain biking.
Location: Highway access is from Route 19, between Beckley and Hico, and from I-64, between Mossy and Sandstone.

Avampato Discovery Museum
Bring your family and spend the day! Immerse yourself in the fun of our two floors of interactive science exhibits, a
breath taking art gallery, and giant screen films and planetarium shows in our ElectricSky™ Theater. Formerly known as
Sunrise Museum, we relocated, changed names and re-opened inside the Clay Center for the Arts and Sciences of West
Virginia in July 2004. We have seen nearly 300,000 guests since opening! In addition to a great time for the entire group,
the new facility also has the Intermezzo Cafe with daily lunch specials and the BB&T Little Shop of Wonders. We hope you
will join us for our great programs and exhibits.
