We are excited to share some of our favorite things to do in Charleston!

If you are looking for something to do early on Saturday, check out Bridge Day at the New River Gorge Bridge in Fayetteville, WV! The bridge is closed to traffic and people BASE jump into the river below. This is WV's largest single day festival and is known world-wide. This is a little over an hour from Charleston, but be prepared for additional traffic.
