North Fork Mountain is located in the “High Alleghenies” of eastern West Virginia. North Fork’s highest peak is Kile Knob at 4,588 feet, and there are a further three lofty peaks, Panther Knob, Chimney Top, and Pike Knob, which are nearly as high and will interest all the Peak Chasers out there. The 24-mile North Fork Mountain Trail is widely acknowledged to be one of the most scenic high-elevation trails in the state, and worthy of a place on any hiking enthusiast’s wish-list. The views in all directions are pretty amazing as you make your way to the various highpoints, and the trail is also suitable for energetic mountain bikers, trail runners, and backcountry campers.
