About Holly River State Park

Holly River State Park sits in a tight valley in Webster County, West Virginia, along the Left Fork of the Holly River. Official park materials describe it as the state's second-largest state park, with a broad range of plant life including wildflowers and ferns. Surrounding ridges are heavily wooded, with some peaks rising above 2,800 feet. Visitors can find hiking trails, cabins, camping, and picnic areas. Park hours are listed as 6 A.M. to 10 P.M., and the campground operates spring through fall, weather permitting.
