Plateau Trail
New
River Gorge National River
Length: 4.5 mile
Rating: Moderate
Polls Plateau Trail is accessed from its junction with Kates Plateau Trail.
Cross several creeks on this loop trail which passes through an upland
forest and past an old farm. It is wide and well-maintained at this point,
but there are places where the trail becomes ambiguous further along the
loop. Topographic maps are recommended.
