Valley Falls State Park, State park in West Virginia, United States
Valley Falls State Park encompasses 1,145 acres of natural land with four waterfalls formed by the Tygart Valley River.
The land contained a thriving industrial community in the 1830s with lumber mills, grist mills, and railroad connections until floods destroyed it in 1888.
The park maintains remnants of 19th-century industrial structures, including stone foundations from former mills along the river banks.
The park opens daily at 7 AM until dark, offering 18 miles of trails for hiking and mountain biking near the waterfalls.
The Tygart Valley River drops in a series of four successive falls, creating distinct water features within a quarter-mile stretch.
