Morgantown, WV Parks & Trails - Heritage Real Estate Co.

If you've challenged yourself to run some of the 5K races in and around Morgantown, WV this year, you'll be looking for places to train. Fortunately, you'll find plenty of parks and running trails that highlight the area's natural beauty and let you see different scenery at each location. You can jumpstart or improve your running routine with trails that provide varying views, terrain, and lengths.

Our real estate agents suggest the following places around Morgantown, WV to train for your next 5K:

  • Caperton Trail, closely paralleling Beechurst Avenue, Morgantown, WV 
    Caperton Trail is an asphalt-paved trail that is close to six miles long in one direction. It's located within the city limits of Morgantown and Star City, giving it an urban feel and making it convenient to restaurants, shopping areas, and Morgantown homes for sale. The trail runs through the Hazel Ruby McQuain Riverfront Park, the Edit Barill Park and the West Virginia University Core Arboretum, while providing great views of the Monongahela River. It's good for all skill levels, and if you'd like to bring your dog along on your run, you can, but it must be kept on a leash.

  • Cheat Lake Park and Trail, Bunker Hill Road, Morgantown, WV
    Cheat Lake Park and Trail has a 4.5-mile trail that goes along the Lake Lynn shoreline, traveling along an abandoned railroad right-of-way. You'll find plenty of natural beauty along your run through the area, including dense woodlands and scenic lake views. The trail is adjacent to Cheat Lake Park, which has picnic tables, so if you'd like a convenient place to relax and refuel, you can stop there after your run.

  • West Virginia Botanic Garden at Tibbs Run Preserve, 1061 Tyrone Road, Morgantown, WV
    You'll find seven blazed trails, a wetland boardwalk, and an unmarked Pond View Trail at West Virginia Botanic Garden at Tibbs Run Preserve. Each of the blazed trails is less than a mile long, and all the trails are interconnected. This lets you easily create your own route, making your run longer or shorter as needed. The trails are well maintained, and you'll be able to enjoy views of wetlands, forests, and garden areas as you run. And while you're running, keep your eyes open for the chance to see wildlife such as birds and deer.

  • Falling Run Greenspace, at the end of Overton Street, Morgantown, WV
    Falling Run Greenspace encompasses 60 acres and has multiple trails available for hiking, biking, or running. The land is owned by West Virginia University, and the school's students volunteered countless hours to cut grass, construct and groom trails, forge streams, build steps, and more. The result is an urban oasis that connects WVU's downtown campus with its Organic Research Farm. If you're training for your next 5K by running through WVU's downtown campus, it's a good way to break up your routine with some beginner to intermediate trail work that provides a respite from some of the busier, more urban miles that you'll log.

Contact us for more information about the natural beauty in Morgantown, WV, which will inspire you to get outside and take advantage of everything our community has to offer. We have a great deal of knowledge about this area and can help you buy or sell a home here.
