Discover the Hampshire Highlands

Tucked into the mountains of eastern West Virginia, the Hampshire Highlands offer scenic landscapes, quiet rivers, and authentic Appalachian experiences. Ride the Potomac Eagle Scenic Railroad through wide valleys, explore forest trails and country backroads, and unwind at historic Capon Springs & Farms, where generations have come to relax and recharge.

Visitors come here to reconnect with nature, enjoy local food and small businesses, and experience a corner of West Virginia that still feels wonderfully unhurried.
