Little Whitestick Falls

Beckley, West Virginia

Uniquely located minutes away from downtown Beckley and the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine, Little Whitestick Falls is worth a visit for all waterfall enthusiasts. To access the falls, take Stanaford Mine Road in Beckley and drive a quarter-mile to enter Piney Creek Preserve (there is a pull-off nearby). Wildwood Trailhead and Waterfall Hollow Trail are on the right. Take the stone steps at the Wildwood Trailhead and follow the Waterfall Hollow Trail for about 100 yards. The trail was formerly a coal mine bench and makes for a mostly flat walk. As the trail forks, this reveals Little Whitestick Falls at the confluence of Little Whitestick Creek to your left. While you’re here, you can also explore the peaceful Cranberry Creek Cascades on the right.
