Wyoming County sits near the southern tip of West Virginia with a population just over 20,000 people. Wyoming offers a variety of recreational opportunities for those seeking some adventure; visitors can enjoy kayaking on Bluestone Lake or hiking up Pine Mountain which provides stunning views of the surrounding mountainside. Other attractions include museums such as The Battle Of Alum Creek Memorial Museum located in Oceana which explores local history or the newly renovated (but historically accurate) Historic McDowell County Courthouse Museum located in Welch offering insight into life during late 19th century Appalachia.
