From Grandview we drove a surprisingly long way to get to Sandstone Falls; to reach it from the visitor center requires a winding drive along the river for quite a way (with a couple viewpoints to see the falls), then crossing a bridge and driving back up the other side of the river to finally reach the falls parking – but worth it!
We saw a family of deer there too!
Grandview isn’t much like Goosenecks (in Utah) that we visited years ago – there’s a lot more trees for one, but it is still an impressive river meander curve that was worth driving to!
Another driving destination today was New River Gorge which we drove right over to begin with, getting lunch in town then heading back to visit the park! The bridge itself is impressive, spanning a quite deep gorge – and driving the old winding road down to the river level, over the old bridge, and back up, is a fun journey too with many views of the new bridge high above!
