Almost Heaven is a special hub for outdoor adventure fans during the winter months!

Home to the longest sled run on the East Coast, don’t miss the thrilling 0.5 km ride at Blackwater Falls State Park. Ride the magic carpet up the hill and skip the extra time spent trudging to the top. Continue the fun at Canaan Valley Resort State Park to twirl around the ice-skating rink or head to the snow tubing park for another fast-paced thrill.

A winter trip to West Virginia isn’t complete without visiting Ogleybay’s Festival of Lights, a  phenomenal Christmas light show that attracts over one million visitors each season with winter-themed displays and Christmas lights spread across 300 acres in November and December. Witness a storybook come to life with a ride on the Potomac Eagle Scenic Railroad’s North Pole Express along with Christmas carols and crafts on your train ride.

Looking for a fun place to stay? The Greenbrier Resort especially comes to life during the holiday season. Nestled within rolling, snow-covered hills, it offers one-of-a-kind Christmas displays, horse-drawn carriage rides, ice skating, a tree lighting ceremony, seasonal wine tastings and holiday shops.
