The Blackbird Knob Hike is special and for eight hikers a great day for a long hike at Canaan Valley Resort. Beginning at 9:00am and returning by 4:00pm, this hike requires advance registration. This Blackbird Knob Hike also falls on National Trails Day.

Participants will be shuttled to the walk area. The hike is physically challenging as we will encounter rough terrain and water crossings. According to Dave Vance, hike coordinator “We will view vistas, high meadows, and spectacular views. It’s is a great longer distance hike.”

Waterproof shoes or boots, and clothing for changing weather conditions are suggested. Please pack a lunch, snacks or water. Walk is approximately 6 miles in length and is not recommended for smaller children. Pre-Registration Required by Friday at 10:00 am at the Beech Club is necessary. The hike fee is $15 per person.
