Hatfield-McCoy Region, W.V.: Off the Beaten Path

The Hatfield-McCoy trail system is the largest off-road system of its kind in America, hosting ATVs, dirt bikes, mountain bikes, horseback riding, and hiking.

When you hit the trail system, there are ample attractions along the way. A popular stop includes the grave of William Anderson “Devil Anse” Hatfield, the patriarch of the Hatfields during their 19th-century feud with the McCoys, near the West Virginia-Kentucky border.

You can explore historic sites associated with the Hatfield-McCoy feud along the trail system. We love Hatfield & McCoy Airboat Tours’ epic ride, speedy and comfortable, transporting you back to the 19th century, when the Tug Fork River was the epicenter of the feud.

Take a break from your off-road adventures to tour the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine to learn about the history and methods of the region’s major industry. Tour guides at the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine are deeply knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

Chief Logan State Park will keep the whole family busy with camping, hiking, fishing, and even miniature golf.

With 18 miles of hiking trails, visitors to Chief Logan State Park may be lucky enough to spot black bears, bobcats, or even wild boars.

You don’t have to limit your visit to the 4,000-acre Chief Logan State Park to a day trip. The campground has 25 sites, an outdoor amphitheater, and wildlife center kids will love.

The historic town of Logan is your gateway to the Hatfield-McCoy Trail System. Fuel up at Logan’s Hot Cup Coffee Shop with great java, smoothies, cinnamon rolls, and more.

Nu Era Bakery, in Logan, offers all the fresh-baked glazed doughnuts, cupcakes, and brownies you might expect, but it also specializes in incredible pepperoni bread, cannoli, and other Italian favorites.

Founded by a family who emigrated from Italy, Nu Era Bakery prepares all their warm-and-fresh goods the “old-fashioned way” - from scratch, every day.
