A word of caution- the Kaymoor steps are long and strenuous. Bring water and a snack, and do not attempt them if you are not physically fit.
You can park at either Kaymoor top (new parking to open soon) or Long Point (and take short connector). Great single track, rolling, smooth super fun. Hit up Pies & Pints or Diogi's for apres pedal.

During the warmer weather months, drive to the bottom of the gorge to see this historic truss bridge across the New River. You can also get great photos from below the New River Gorge Bridge.
