Encompassing 100,000 acres, the scenic Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area (NRA) contains the highest peak in West Virginia, some of the best rock climbing on the east coast, outstanding views and a chance to enjoy America's great outdoors.

Congress established the Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area in 1965. This area is unique because it was the first NRA to be designated in the USDA Forest Service. Visitor facilities include the Seneca Rocks Discovery Center, Seneca Shadows and Big Bend campgrounds, and the Spruce Knob Tower. Many thousands of acres of unspoiled quiet land await discovery.
