Yes, the Art Museum of WVU is small, but Morgantown is fortunate to have this little gem and it is worthy of a visit. And it's free! Local family members tell us that exhibits rotate regularly so repeat visits will always present something different for the art lover. We enjoyed our visit here and would visit again while in the area. Recommended!
6. Caperton Trail

We biked, on hybrids, from Ruby McQuain parking lot south to mile 16-17. We found the trail level, mostly wooded and scenic. We were out on Saturday between about 11-1 and it was not crowded. For about 2 miles, it’s paved. After the pavement ends, it turns to level, well groomed, crushed limestone. The trail runs parallel to the Monongahela River.
