  • Looking for a beautiful wooded state park right on the river with an amazing hiking trail, then look no further than Audra State Park in West Virginia. This place was amazing! Even though it is an older, smaller state park, it was very well maintained and had great camping right next to the Middle Fork River and a very nice 2.7 mile hiking trail accross the road called the Alum Cave Trail. There were numerous picnicking options with views of the river and several shelter houses for events. Definitely worth a visit if in West Virginia! In this video I show footage of all 67 campsites.

    Love this park. Fun fact, my 91 year old dad use to walk though that area when he was a kid/teen, before it was a state park. He like many moved to Ohio at 19. We would go back several times a year when i was growing up.

    Thanks for this video. I grew up here, and moved back to my surrounding hometown a few years ago. I have many memories of Audra, and haven't camped here in a long time. Great job and I hope you had a great time.

    Wow, that’s a great campground. Well laid out. Those sites along the river were excellent.
    Many of the smaller ones had nice character for tent sites.
    Thanks for sharing.

    I've stayed here before and loved it. We are booked again for July for a couple nights. I love being on the river in the woods. Do you know of any other campgrounds like this in west virginia?

    Looks like a beautiful campground! Excellent walk around. Been eyeing out places to take my 30 foot trailer, looks like a few spots there may work. Looks like a lot of good spots for tent and hammock camping as an alternative to the trailer. Would love to be along that creek in my hammock!

    • @jasonwish-
      @jasonwish-  Před 3 měsíci

      Yes, I believe there’s plenty of spots that would hold a 30 foot trailer. And I agree about the hammock camping along the river that would be perfect! Thanks for checking out the video!

      September 24. The nights were pretty cool and the water levels were way down. Seemed like a pretty good time to go for us. It would’ve been a little bit better for leaf color waiting two more weeks.
