In 2026, the Greater Kanawha Valley is poised
to take advantage of the $85 billion bike industry trend that is sweeping the globe. Bicylcing is a low-impact, environmentally friendly solution. Bike trails are being used recreationally, and increasingly, for commerce.
This trail directly supports Charleston’s mission to be a “Bike City,” a place where residents and tourists alike can enjoy a 37-mile corridor of trails.
The Kanawha Valley River Trail
aims to unite the five disparate communities of Charleston, WV: the East End, North Charleston, South Hills, the West Side and Kanawha City as well as incorporate the heart of historic downtown. Ultimately, the trail would connect the distant towns of Marmet and Nitro through a series of 37- mile interconnected trails.
