Things to do in West Virginia, United States: The Best Arenas & Stadiums

October 9, 2021 Mikaela Didonna

As you would expect, The Mountain State displays rustic charm with dramatic river gorges, large limestone caverns and spectacular mountain views. West Virginia hosts outdoor enthusiasts and family vacationers looking for fresh-air activities and serene mountain atmosphere. If stimulating city holidays are your preference, Charleston combines warm hospitality with a lovely riverside location. A family-friendly destination, you’ll discover children’s theatre, river park recreation and popular Bridge Road for shopping and dining. Smaller towns blend outdoor adventure with quaint village atmospheres. Set between the New, Greenbrier and Bluestone Rivers, Hinton is an historic rail town filled with turn-of-the-century architecture and a host of water activities at its doorstep – rafting, fishing, kayaking and more. In the heart of West Virginia, Summersville is a “Mountain Water Playground.” Its lakeside location encourages outdoor recreation from swimming and boating to scuba diving and rafting. And history buffs can trace Civil War battles throughout the states historic sites and state parks. Hiking or horseback riding along trails through deep hardwood forests is another family favorite, especially when you stop for a picnic along a clear mountain stream.

So I'll admit that my experience was aided in the fact my Cowboys won, but I did thoroughly enjoy my experience. Nice facilities. Hometown fans were great and courteous. It was definitely worth the trip.

WVU Coliseum

Reviewed By Willowvacay - Morgantown, United States

See the renovations a few years ago, this is always a great place to watch a game. There is plenty or room in the concourse, plenty of new restrooms, several family restrooms, good food selection, and a nice beer selection. It’s always a nice place to spend a cold winter day/night.

Great baseball stadium with great seats. Normal ballpark concessions with the usual foods. Very affordable for a family on a budget. Great opportunity to see a future MLB player before they make the big time. Lots of entertainment between innings to keep the kids interested.
