New River Gorge National River is a place for people of all ages- those who are young in years and those who are young at heart!

Don’t let your parents have all of the fun. Ask your parents to stop by one of the park visitor centers, talk to a park ranger and find out if there are any special activities planned. Tell them you want to become a Junior Ranger!
