Blackwater Canyon, West Virginia, USA
Picture 45 acres of pristine mountain views into the Blackwater Canyon: it’s a stunning
centrepiece in West Virginia, USA. As you read this, early Fall colours are deepening against
leftover greenery along the lush embankment. The canyon walls, which at times are nearly
vertical, are covered in a thick hemlock, oak, maple, and yellow poplar canopy that comes alive
every autumn. The sheer variety of foliage offers exceptionally colourful vistas in October, with
temperatures averaging comfortably in the 50s.
