Pinnacle Rock State Park, State park in Mercer County, United States
The 374-acre park features a 3,100-foot sandstone formation that rises above the surrounding landscape, offering panoramic views of the Appalachian region.
The Conservation Commission established the park in 1938 by acquiring a 26-acre tract, with subsequent development completed by the Works Progress Administration.
The park stands near Bramwell, a town with preserved mansions from the coal mining period that shaped West Virginia's industrial development.
Visitors can access multiple hiking trails totaling six miles, fish in Jimmy Lewis Lake, and use picnic facilities with tables that accommodate up to 75 people.
Two geocaching sites within the park boundaries provide GPS-based treasure hunting experiences among the natural rock formations and wooded areas.
