§ 02 — OVERVIEW
Grandview Shelter #4 is a medium size shelter located under the canopy of the forest.
It can accommodate up to 64 people inside and 26 people outside the shelter for a total of about 90 people.
The Grandview area of New River Gorge National River features five hiking trails, overlooks, a seasonal visitor center, ranger-led activities, summer outdoor dramas (Theatre West Virginia), playgrounds, volleyball court, baseball field, and basketball court.
Shelter #4 offers one electrical outlet, and two charcoal grills. Playground equipment, horse shoe pit, drinking fountain with side spigot, and a handicapped accessible restroom are nearby. This shelter is handicapped accessible but the asphalt walkway ends prior to the shelter (10 - 15'). Additional chairs, tables, and canopy tents are allowed.
Grandview became part of New River Gorge National River in 1990, after more than 50 years as one of West Virginia's most popular day use state parks. The area offers spectacular views of the New River and beautiful displays of rhododendron. At the Main Overlook, 1,400 feet above the river, you see an active railway and the town of Quinnimont, where the first coal was shipped out of the gorge in 1873.
The city of Beckley is approximately 12 miles from Grandview. It offers a wide variety of shopping, restaurants, and hotels. Popular attractions include a children's museum, and Exhibition Coal Mine.
Refunds are not issued due to rain.
