About

The Blackwater Canyon Half Marathon takes place in Parsons, in Tucker County, West Virginia, deep in the state's mountain country. The 13.1-mile course follows scenic trails that open onto sweeping views of the surrounding wilderness, making for a quieter, nature-focused alternative to a road half marathon.

Within an hour's drive, several sites make for a good extended trip: the waterfalls of Blackwater Falls State Park, Canaan Valley Resort for hiking or a spa visit, the museum at Seneca Rocks, and the offbeat Mystery Hole attraction.
