Take a Wildflower Walk Around Mountaineer Country

May 10th, 2021 by Heritage Realty International Inc.

Wildflower Walk - Morgantown, WV - Heritage Real Estate Co.

Wildflowers have a wonderful, beautiful character. They can wrap you up in their world of whimsy and transform your day into something lovely. If you're looking for Morgantown homes for sale, you're sure to notice some wildflowers along the roadside as you drive along. But did you know there are places nearby where you can walk and enjoy even more wildflowers? Here are a few suggestions.

Core Arboretum – WVU Campus, Morgantown WV, 26506
Managed by the WVU Department of Biology, Core Arboretum is a large forested area with more than 3 miles of trails and more than 150 species of trees and shrubs. Of course, there are plenty of wildflowers scattered throughout the area, too, especially if you visit in the spring.

Core Arboretum is also filled with birds. It can be very relaxing to watch them among the flowers. The trail is marked and easy to follow, and visitors are welcome free of charge.
Caperton Trail – Morgantown WV, 26506
This is a 6-mile trail that stretches from Morgantown to Star City. It begins at the Hazel Ruby McQuain Riverfront Park in central Morgantown and winds through various neighborhoods and districts.

Although some parts of Caperton Trail are more urban, there are also plenty of quiet, rural areas where wildflowers abound. You can walk a mile or six along the trail, perhaps stopping along the way for a picnic.
Cooper's Rock State Forest – 61 County Line Dr., Bruceton Mills WV, 26525
If you're looking at Morgantown homes for sale, then Cooper's Rock State Forest is just 15 minutes away. This beautiful state forest was established in 1936, and it features a remarkable mixture of terrain, including cliffs, flatlands, and a lake.

There are several hiking trails leading through the park, and wildflowers grow up all along them. The park also has a nice playground for kids and plenty of unique rock formations to admire. This is the perfect place to stop and take a pause from your busy house-hunting schedule.
Valley Falls State Park – 720 Valley Falls Rd., Fairmont WV, 26554
Valley Falls State Park is a sprawling, 1,145-acre park built on the site of an old mill town. The land was acquired by the parks department in 1964.

If your goal is to see wildflowers, consider walking the Rhododendron Trail. It's one of the easiest trails to hike in Valley Falls State Park, but as the name suggests, you'll see lots of flowers along it. If you're up for a more physical challenge, the Wild Turkey Trail is another good choice.
Dorsey's Knob Park – Route 119, Morgantown, WV
Dorsey's Knob Park is a 70-acre park on the outskirts of Morgantown. It's known for Sky Rock, the large rock that stands 600 feet about the surrounding landscape. Throughout the park, you'll find a beautiful array of deep valleys, pine forests, and unique rock formations.

This park offers a stunning, panoramic view, and you can see wildflowers dotting the ground below. The disc golf course is also surrounded by wildflowers in some areas. More than 3 miles of trails wind through the park, so you can explore until your heart is content.

Spring is a beautiful time in West Virginia, thanks in part to the wildflowers. From blue violets to pink lady's slippers, you'll see so many flowers dotting the roadsides, fields, and cliff sides this time of year. Our real estate agents recommend stopping at one of the parks or trails above while you're in the Morgantown area. Also, don't hesitate to contact us if you're still looking for an agent.
