Big day for Beckley’s trails! 🎉

We’re excited to celebrate the ribbon cutting of the new Stanaford Grove Trailhead and trail system at the West Virginia Land Trust in Beckley, WV.

As a project of the Beckley Outdoors initiative, this milestone brings Beckley’s first purpose-built mountain biking trails to the community—alongside a scenic hiking loop—creating new ways for people of all abilities to get outside and explore.

Built through strong partnerships and a shared vision for outdoor access, this is a major step forward for Beckley Area Trails.

Come see it for yourself and be part of the momentum! 🌲🚵‍♀️

We had a blast at the Winterplace Ski Resort Pond Skim Fundraiser for Beckley Area Trails!

We are a new, small International Mountain Bicycling Association local MTB club and are so fortunate to have such supportive partners who believe in our mission to create, enhance, and activate human-powered trails in the Beckley, NRG region. We couldn’t do this without each of you who support this community organization by being a member or donating your time or money. We raised a few hundred dollars, recruited some new members, and got to chat with so many people. We appreciate you! Thank you, Winterplace. See you next season!!
