West Virginia is a state found in the southern parts of the United States of America. It became a state in 1861, just as the American Civil War was beginning. Apart from Nevada, it is the only other state that joined the Union during the American Civil War. Situated in the Appalachian Mountain range, West Virginia is mostly mountainous, hence its name, the “Mountain State”. Many tourists visit this state every year for an opportunity to participate in the numerous outdoor recreational activities the state has to offer. Seneca Rock is famous for rock climbing, while the Monongahela National Forest is a popular destination for hikers, hunters, nature travellers and backpackers. Read this article to learn more about the best Airbnbs in West Virginia, USA.
