About Lost River State Park

A stretch of woodland near the community of Mathias covers 3,712 acres managed by the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources. Despite its name, the park does not border the Lost River itself; the waterway runs about 2.3 miles to the east. Visitors looking for the river by the park's namesake will need to travel beyond its boundaries to find it.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
