Welcome to Crumpler WV! Our intent is to share useful information with riders planning to visit the area. What to bring,
where to go, etc... With two Hatfield McCoy systems in the area and a third system under construction, this area is fast becoming
THE ATV destination on the East Coast.
This area is super ATV friendly. There is so much to see and so many places
to ride it would be impossible to share it all with you on a website.
This is not an ATV park. This is an ATV
adventure area that has something for every skill level from beginner to expert.
Are you ready to ride? I mean really
seriously ride? If so, start packing. This is one of those places you have to experience for yourself...
In memory of Darrell Persianni, a true friend. We miss you Darrell!

BRAMWELL — Fresh opportunities for entrepreneurs start this Memorial Day weekend when a new branch of the Hatfield-McCoy Trail
brings visiting ATV riders into Mercer County.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony May 25 will welcome new visitors to the center that will be
providing them with information and other services needed for enjoying the new local attraction, said Mayor Louise Stoker of Bramwell
“The
Hatfield-McCoy Trailhead will have a soft opening that day,” said Stoker said. “The ribbon cutting for the trailhead will be at the
old Bluestone School on Route 120 near the exit off Route 52.”
The former school building was recently chosen for the trailhead center,
said Jeffrey Lusk, executive director of the Hatfield-McCoy Trail Authority. Its soft opening will include a parking lot.
“We think
that reusing an old building like that is the greenest thing we can do,” Lusk said. “It’s a very good use for that structure. Todd
Boggess of E.T. Boggess Architects is doing an internal design for us.”
One asset communities along and near the new trail need is
lodging for ATV riders, Lusk said.
“We are going to be in desperate need for beds May 25 and then on out,” he said. “The demand is
going to outstrip supply.”
Local entrepreneurs are already moving to meet the demand for lodging that ATV riders will bring to Bramwell
and other parts of Mercer County, Stoker said. One will have its opening ceremony on the same day as the trailhead center.
