Hatfield-McCoy Mountains

Start your trip with a pastry and coffee from Nu Era Bakery in Logan, a downtown institution since 1940. Then, hop on the Hatfield-McCoy Trail System, which offers over 800 miles of off-road trails that are open year-round for ATVs, UTVs, dirt bikes or 4x4s. After you’ve worked up an appetite, drive straight to Morrison’s Drive Inn, one of three drive-in restaurants in Logan and known for its West Virginia-style hotdogs with chili, slaw, mustard and onions. Finally, rest up in a luxury cabin at the outdoor haven known as Chief Logan State Park.

Begin the day at Hot Cup Coffee, a trendy coffee shop in downtown Logan. Then, it’s off to the Twisted Gun Golf Course in Wharncliffe, a hidden gem of the coal fields, with gorgeous fairways and vibrant greens. Next, make a stop at the Hatfield & McCoy Moonshine Distillery to sample some authentic moonshine. The recipe has been handed down for generations and is produced in small, handmade batches. End your day with the Hatfield & McCoy Feud Tour to visit key feud sites and see the burial places of the infamous clan.

End your trip in Matewan, exploring the history and culture of the area. First, stop by the Matewan Depot Replica Museum to explore the artifacts and historical records that bring a deeper appreciation for West Virginia heritage. Then, learn about the mine wars that helped bring about the rights of the modern labor force at the West Virginia Mine Wars Museum. Finally, travel along the Tug River on a Hatfield & McCoy Airboat Tour. This mode of transportation will shake up your normal float on the river. Bring the whole family for this blast on the water weekend getaway in the Hatfield-McCoy Mountains!
