Only 63 areas throughout the country have been recognized with the designation of national park. As of January 2021, West Virginia is honored with the naming of New River Gorge as the first national park in the state. Almost heaven, indeed!
Thanks to its natural beauty and abundance of activities, New River Gorge has long been a favorite location for our real estate agents. Here's a look at why the newly-minted national park should be on your recreational radar.
Technically, "The New," as it's affectionately known to locals, has been part of the national park system since 1978, when it became New River Gorge National River after President Jimmy Carter signed the legislation. This act put 70,000 acres under protection of the national park system in order to preserve the area for future generations.
