As a vacation destination, Harpers Ferry has plenty going for it. It's chock full of history. It's an Appalachian Trail town (in fact, it represents the mid-point of the trail!). It's got options for train lovers, nature lovers, adventure lovers, National Park lovers, water lovers, civil war buffs, and those interested in walking in the steps of the Founding Fathers or Lewis and Clark.
In fact, it will take a long vacation to experience all Harpers Ferry has to offer! Don't miss iconic attractions like Jefferson's Rock, Old Town, or the rail-trail bridge across the Potomac into Maryland.
Don't miss the mill ruins along the Shenandoah or the church ruins above St. Peter's Church or the farmhouse ruins on Schoolhouse Ridge. Don't miss Harpers Ferry Adventure Center. Don't miss an inch of this ideal small town vacation destination that's packed to the gills with points of interest!
The second West Virginia small town to make Esquire’s list was Welch, West Virginia, thanks in large part to the Kimball War Memorial, a uniqe World War I museum that’s well worth a visit.
