RV rental Greenbrier State Forest, WV: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Encompassing over 5,100 acres of magical green woods, outdoor lovers are treated to the sight of second-growth trees intermingled with old-growth trees that are centuries old. There are around 20 miles of established trails for hikers to explore and an additional 10 miles of trails that were created by bygone hikers. Though adventurers are welcome to venture off the beaten tracks, they are cautioned to be very familiar with orienteering because it can be easy to lose the trail. Hunting is a longstanding tradition in West Virginia, and of course, safety is tantamount. Greenbrier State Forest operates an archery field range at which beginner and experienced archers can learn and test their skills. There is also a muzzle-loading rifle range, though all participants must have the appropriate licenses to operate these weapons. The state park's pool, which was constructed in 1938, has been updated with a heating system. Relaxing in a warm pool is a wonderful way to unwind at the end of a long hike. Be aware, though, that the pool is open only between Memorial Day and Labor Day. For even more hiking, horseback riding, and biking fun, join the other adventurers on the 78-mile-long Greenbrier River Trail, which winds and weaves through the woods as it follows the banks of the Greenbrier River. The trail is laid over a now-defunct railroad track. The Backpacker Magazine rated the trail as one of the top 10 hiking trails in the country. Note that sections of the trail pass through a National Radio Quiet Zone, and cellphone signals may be nil. Head into the bowels of the earth at Organ Cave, which has over 45 miles of mapped tunnels. Although all visitors must be escorted by a guide - it wouldn’t do if someone got lost. After all - there are a few different types of tours ranging from sedately to adventurous. The daring can opt to go spelunking, which entails squeezing through tight passages, navigating through difficult corners, and passing through some of the deepest, darkest tunnels in the Organ Cave system. All of the necessary equipment is provided, though participants are advised to wear sturdy closed-toe shoes. Organ Cave, a few miles south of Ronceverte, has been featured on the History Channel and National Geographic.
