Access Description

The Ivy Branch Trail System is located just 20 minutes from West Virginia's capital city of Charleston and is open to all types of off-road vehicles, including Jeeps. Known for its higher concentration of difficult and extreme trails, Ivy Branch requires a roll cage on all ORVs using trails rated Most Difficult or Extreme. The trailhead is located in Julian, WV, and offers permit sales, restrooms, and a 1-acre parking lot. Permits are available only through local vendors or onsite facilities and are valid through December 31 of the purchase year. Ivy Branch is part of the Hatfield-McCoy Trail System, which spans seven counties and ten trailheads in southern West Virginia through terrain rooted in the region's rich coal mining history.
