Mountaineer Country Is Wide Open!
A Message from the Visit Mountaineer Country Convention and Visitors Bureau
Local Information
Click here to view the latest COVID-19 Actions and Executive Orders made by West Virginia Governor Jim Justice.
During the coronavirus crisis, the health and well-being of our local community and our visitors is vital. Travelers to Mountaineer Country – and all destinations – should continue to observe the health recommendations of national and local public health officials, as they plan to travel, when they travel, and when they are visiting any destination. Travelers are also encouraged to check the status of any upcoming reservation, special event and operations of individual businesses before embarking on their trip.
Here in West Virginia, public officials have issued moratoriums on restaurants and bars as restricted to carry-out and delivery only, with no on-site consumption permitted. Locally, public gatherings of more than 10 people — exempting essential locations like grocery stores, pharmacies and retail stores – is prohibited.
Visit Mountaineer Country Convention & Visitors Bureau is in close contact with regional public health officials and elected officials, as well as with national travel associations, and is actively communicating to the best of our ability on this website as the situation changes.
