Remember how fun it is to get the whole gang together for a game or two of bowling?

An evening of bowling at the Leisure Center at The Resort at Glade Springs is one part nostalgia, one part high-tech, and simply - a blast! When the sun sets in the mountains of West Virginia, your family vacation keeps rolling right along - with fun to "spare" in our spacious 10-lane bowling center!

Up-tempo music on a superior sound system will get everyone moving to the beat - and knocking down those pins! Our snack bar features fun foods like warm, soft pretzels and hot dogs - and a variety of sodas and beer to complement our tasty treats. You can even rest your feet in one of our comfortable lounge chairs while watching sports on the wide-screen TV.

The Bowling Center is located in the heart of the Leisure Center, so you're just steps away from an array of other family entertainment options, such as a game room for the kids, indoor pool, tennis, and so much more.

Your family will be "bowled" over when you add an evening of bowling to your West Virginia resort vacation at Glade Springs!

A family vacation in West Virginia isn't complete without a little fun on the water!

Come spend a relaxing afternoon or evening at Mallard Lake, where you'll be surprised and delighted with all there is to do and see!

Bridge Day is the largest extreme sports event in the world and is held on the third Saturday in October every year in Fayette County, West Virginia.

Bridge Day was first celebrated in 1980 to commemorate the completion of the New River Gorge Bridge, the world's second longest single arch bridge. Today, it is rated one of the top 100 festivals in North America, and a must-see if you're planning an autumn vacation in southern West Virginia.

The festival is unique in that it is the only day visitors may walk across the bridge.

BASE jumpers can parachute from the railing and rappellers are allowed to descend and ascend fixed ropes. Vendors line both ends of the bridge selling crafts, shirts, photos, souvenirs, and refreshments. The spectacular fall foliage of the New River Gorge frames the event which is expected to attract hundreds of BASE jumpers and around 80,000 spectators this year.

"BASE" is an acronym which stands for the four categories of objects from which one can jump - Building, Antenna, Span (the word used for a bridge), and Earth (the word used for a cliff.) Although 876 feet is extremely high, it is a quick 8 seconds from the bridge to the water of the New River below. Most jumpers will fall from the bridge 3-4 seconds before deploying their parachute, and then spend the next 20-30 seconds floating down to the designated landing zone located at the water's edge.

If your vacation plans bring you to The Resort at Glade Springs in October, come enjoy Bridge Day, West Virginia's largest one-day festival!

If your child were to dream up the ultimate summer day in wild, wonderful West Virginia, chances are it would look a lot like a day at Camp Glade.

Ever wonder what lies beneath your feet? Take a walk on the wild side and find out!

Wild cave tours at Lost World Caverns provide the more adventurous an opportunity to go beyond the standard walking tour and explore undeveloped parts of the cavern. Expert guides will lead you on a four-hour trip through more than a mile of chambers and passageways that require some strength and agility to negotiate. At the end of the journey, you will emerge from the cave covered in mud but will be rewarded with the experience of a lifetime.

No special equipment is necessary. Beyond your own clothing and boots, you will be outfitted with helmets, lights, kneepads, and gloves. A light snack and water are provided during the tour and your guide will capture your experience on film, from the start to the muddy end. We have showers available to get cleaned up afterwards and we will provide a hot picnic lunch for everyone on the trip at the end. Each person will receive a set of photos of the expedition on a CD at no extra charge.

Walk across the New River Gorge on the under structure of the world famous New River Gorge Arch Bridge!

New River Gorge visitors are now able to walk across the canyon on a 24-inch-wide catwalk, 851 feet above the river. The catwalk is an existing structure underneath the roadbed of the New River Gorge Bridge, which is the third highest vehicular bridge in North America and the third longest steel single-span arch bridge in the world.

The Bridge Walk Tours last 2 to 3 hours. Participants begin the tour on the north side of the Bridge where you will enter the catwalk in the midst of the massive iron structure. Before beginning the tour, guests will be securely fastened onto a safety cable making it impossible to fall from the bridge during a Bridge Walk Tour. You will walk the entire 3,030 foot length of the bridge and then ascend a trail to road level where you will be shuttled back to the Bridge Walk headquarters. Bridge Tours move along at a leisurely pace and there is plenty of time to stop for photos, and to discuss features of the Bridge, Gorge and Park with your guide.

Bridge Walk Tour - $72 per person
