Overlook Rock Trailhead
Score4.8A short trail leading to a rocky bluff with sweeping views over Charleston, the Kanawha River and surrounding ridges — ideal for skyline, river reflections, and seasonal foliage.

Trailhead parking is limited; no entry fee but expect uneven footing and some scrambling to reach the absolute edge. Weekday mornings are quieter. Check weather for haze and river reflections.
