Elk River Public Access - Big Chimney — photo spot in 140 Rena Mae Dr, Elkview, WV 25071, USA
Elk River Public Access - Big Chimney
Small public access on the Elk River offering riverscape compositions: riffles, rock outcrops, reflections and wooded banks that glow in fall. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm side light and mist; long exposures smooth the current. Easy car access with a small parking area off Rena Mae Dr; no fee. Weekdays and low water levels reveal more foreground rocks; bring waterproof boots for shoreline angles. Seasonal foliage and changing water levels make each visit different.
