Moon Rocks Hike

Have you ever wandered what it would be like to walk on the moon? If so, come join us for a hike to do just that! This trail is the Moon Rocks Trail located at the “Yellow Creek Natural Area, an 860-acre public preserve owned and managed by the West Virginia Land Trust” in Davis WV. This trail includes massive formations of “moon rock” sandstone bedrock some 480 million years old as well as wetland areas that give way to areas of hard-woods.
