Directions

Notes

Follow I-79 into West Virginia and to exit 99 (Route 33 East).

 

Follow Route 33 East through Buckhannon, Elkins, Seneca Rocks, and on to Judy Gap where 33 and 28 split.

About 90 miles driving distance.

From the intersection of Rt. 33 and Rt. 28, go right (south) on Rt. 28 for about 8.5 miles through Circleville and Cherry Grove and then turn right onto Sawmill Run Road, CR28-10.

Circleville has a small gas station and food mart. It’s your last contact with civilization and has the closest pay phone to Gatewood on this route.

Sawmill Run Road is about half a mile past the large brown Monongahela Natural Forest sign

Follow CR28-10 for about 2.5 miles and take a hard left turn at the intersection with CR28-9. Stay on CR28-10.

The paved road will turn to gravel on this leg. Ignore the small signs for the Gatewood trail, along the way.  These are not for the Gatewood Group Campsite. 

Take a right onto PR-112. Follow the brown signs for Spruce Knob and Spruce Knob Lake.

You depart from CR28-10 at this point.

Continue strait the junction for Spruce Knob, Spruce Knob Lake (PR-1) and Whitmer.

Go towards Spruce Knob.

Turn left at the sign for Gatewood Group Campsite (PR-131). 

Please lock the gate behind you. The campground is one mile ahead at the end of the road. Congratulations, you made it!
