Description
Nestled in the heart of whitewater rafting country, Hawks Nest State Park encompasses 276 acres bordering a rugged section of the New River Gorge National River and known for the panoramic views. The New River was designated an American Heritage River on July 30, 1998.
The name of this area comes from the numerous osprey (some call them, fish hawks) that once nested on the cliffs. Today, many hawks, turkey vultures, black vultures and the occasional bald and golden eagles are seen soaring above the canyon.
