If you live far enough S that taking I-64E to Charleston, WV looks too out of the way, get yourself a good road atlas and consult the Internet – there’s no direct yet easy way to Beckley. You may want to take US-460E to I-77N. Good luck! From DC, Baltimore, points N:

LOCAL DIRECTIONS:
1. Starting at the Fayetteville, WV intersection of US-19 and WV-16, take WV-16 N (toward Beckwith and away from Fayetteville - you're heading downhill. Obey the 25mph and 40 mph speed limits here!). 2. On right, look for brown sign: "Fayette County Park 500 feet". 3. When you reach the border of Beckwith (roadsign on right), take an immediate left onto Fayette County Park Rd [WV County Rd 8]. 4. When Fayette County Park Rd forks at the park sign, take the right fork. |
