Guest River Gorge Tunnel

The railroad tunnel on the Guest River Gorge trail highlighted by vibrant fall color. Formerly built by the Interstate railroad to access coal fields in 1922, it was used by Norfolk and Western (later Norfolk Southern) railroad until 1988. The 5.8 mile rail bed was then donated to the State and converted into a beautiful hiking and biking trail along the Guest River.
