We traveled all the way from Toronto, Canada to ride the Bearwallow Trail. You need to get a permit which is good for the season. You can it get it at this specific trail from 9 am - 2 pm. After that you have to go to the welcome center I believe.I'm going to answer the questions, that you can't find answers to. Jeeps are only allowed on the Bearwallow system, Greens and Blues trails only ,to my knowledge. Green is the easiest and blue is more difficult. You need a helmet to ride even in a jeep. It took us 3 hours to complete a circuit of trails, so you will not get bored. This is a rare trail system that is open 7 days a week and open during "daylight hours", you can ride alone as well, most other trails make let you either only let you ride on weekends, or with a minimum of 2 vehicles. As for directions, your map will show WV 17 and WV 10 forking off and you are suppose to follow the WV 17. The WV 10 has a new extension which is not updated on any maps including google, the new extension is only 3 months old. So their isn't a real fork, there is a left you have to make, your map will show a fork but it is a left turn. This was an amazing experience, worth the 9 hours drive from Toronto.
