WVExplorer Focus:
The Roof of West Virginia
The Allegheny Range of the
Appalachian Mountains attains its highest elevation atop
Spruce Knob -- at 4,861-feet-above sea level, the highest
point in West Virginia. An observation tower marks the
high ground and provides a focus for hikes through the
surrounding tundra. Other spectacular vistas may be
enjoyed nearby at Gaudeneer Knob and at Dolly Sods, in the
northern Allegheny Highlands.
