This 6.0 mile trip suitable for beginner backpackers and above.


Step into the wild beauty of Dolly Sods Wilderness with an unforgettable backpacking adventure through Rohrbaugh Plains. This scenic escape in West Virginia’s Monongahela National Forest is perfect for beginners—no experience needed. Whether you're new to backpacking or just looking for a relaxed weekend in nature, this trip is a great way to try it out.

Just three miles from the trailhead, you’ll arrive at the dramatic Rohrbaugh Cliffs, where a breathtaking 270-degree view of Red Creek Valley unfolds beneath you. After soaking in the scenery, we’ll settle into a nearby campsite just in time to witness a spectacular sunset, the perfect end to a perfect day.

Don’t let the gentle terrain fool you, this trip is packed with rewarding views and the peaceful magic of the highlands. Join us for a weekend that will leave you inspired, refreshed, and ready for more adventures.
