Central West Virginia Holiday Packages

Enjoy natural beauty in the geographic heartland of the state, where rolling hills, lakes and rivers provide ample opportunities for outdoor adventures.

Instead of bright lights, big cities or crowded monuments, central West Virginia has peaceful farmland, small arty towns and unspoiled rivers, lakes and wilderness areas. Breathe in fresh air in the green landscapes, drive up your heart rate with exciting sporting experiences and enjoy the relaxed pace of life in laid-back towns.

The central region of West Virginia has long relied upon industries such as energy, agriculture and forestry, with tourism growing rapidly. Drive through the state today and look for evidence of this burgeoning industry. In particular, you’ll find an increasing number of campgrounds and holiday properties on the edges of its lakes and rivers.

Base yourself in Summersville for easy access to Summersville Lake. Enjoy water-based activities, such as fishing, boating, swimming and kayaking. With its fast-flowing whitewater rapids, nearby Gauley River is a must for thrill-seekers. Familiarize yourself with regional Civil War history at the Carnifex Ferry Battlefield State Park.

Continue north to the town of Flatwoods, known for its association with the Flatwoods monster. This legend revolves around the rumoured sighting of an extra-terrestrial entity in 1952. Venture just south of town to reach the Flatwoods Factory Outlet Stores, where you can shop for discounted goods.

The little village of Bulltown, farther north again, is also well worth visiting. Discover more about Civil War history at the Bulltown Historic Area, which occupies an old battle site. Walk along interpretive trails and look for remnants of an old fort.

Stop at the Burnsville Lake Wildlife Management Area, which encompasses the 968-acre (392-hectare) Burnsville Lake. Fish during the day and stay overnight in designated camping areas.

Much of the central West Virginia region is rural and not well served by regular public transportation, so rent a car for exploring. Highways make it easy to navigate. This part of the state is still largely overlooked by both domestic and international travellers, allowing you to experience the lush landscapes without encountering crowds or traffic.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Central West Virginia during the COVID-19 outbreak?
If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 outbreak, you'll notice new restrictions and standards in place. Follow these tips and make your getaway to Central West Virginia go off without a hitch:
  • Before booking your flight, see if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get up-to-date information by checking government travel advisories.
  • When you go through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to briefly lower it to confirm your identity. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied boarding.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Rather, position your pass on the scanner and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
  • TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will have to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
  • Empty everything from your pockets, like your wallet, keys and phone, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
  • If you want to take food through the screening checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
