Highlands Scenic Byway (WV-150)
Seasonal closures apply — confirm it is open on your dates.
Tucker County Alpine Fest (third weekend of August) is the calendar item that moves RV inventory inside a 60-mile radius — highland county tourism peaks; all in-region camping at 80%. Plan arrival in Mid-May through September and late September through mid-October for the most stable window; avoid November through April. From here, two scenic routes worth a half-day diversion are Highlands Scenic Byway (WV-150) and Stuart Memorial Drive (WV-26).
The recurring arrival error documented locally is driving the highlands scenic byway (wv-150) in winter without checking closure status, which closes november through april annually per wv doh.
