One of the last remaining observation towers in Monongahela National Forest is the Bickle Knob Observation Tower. Once a fire tower for the National Forest, Bickle Knob replaced the fire tower with an observation deck. Though not handicap accessible, access to the observation tower is easy in warmer months. Once you climb to the top of the observation tower, you’ll be greeted with a 360-degree view of Monongahela and the surrounding mountains. The vistas are something that cannot be explained without seeing, and the four flights of stairs needed to reach the top are well worth the effort.
