THE GREENBRIER RIVER

The Greenbrier River is one of the most charming rivers in West Virginia. At more than 150 miles long, it has great rural scenery, rich history, and excellent fishing. The Greenbrier was a Native American warpath and had a big role in the development of region’s early timber industry. Today, it offers some of the best recreation opportunities in the state, including very productive fishing spots. The smallmouth fishing in the Greenbrier is world-class. On a typical fishing day, you’ll see expert fly fishers tossing hand-tied flies from guided rafts, novices wading with push-button casting rods, and everyone in between. If you like to wade, you’ll find plenty of access points in and along the Greenbrier River . If you prefer to float, the river has great paddling on one of the longest undammed rivers in the east.

Alderson offers two access points on the river for fishing, swimming and boating. WaterFront Park Areas on both sides of the river are excellent recreational destinations.   Wild Geese, Herons, Wood Ducks, mallards are often seen on the water.   The Memorial Bridge now a public park is yet another way to catch a perfect Summer Breeze.  Pedestrian use only on the bridge allows a fun day riding bikes, fishing from the bridge or any activity.

Characteristics of the Greenbrier River:

• Reasonably easy access
• Remote floatable sections
• Varied wildlife sightings
• Ease of floatability
• Good for all ages
• Good fish production in the 10″-16″ range
• Good for all forms of water recreation
