Plan the Perfect Bachelor/Bachelorette Party
If your adventure-loving best friend is tying the knot, don’t be the type of best man or maid of honor who plans an average night-out-on-the-town bachelor or bachelorette party. You might be celebrating his or her last days as an unmarried man or woman, but this is also an opportunity to bring their closest friends together for meaningful bonding time—and there’s no better place for that than the great outdoors. Regardless of the season, group size, or adrenaline-junkie level, if the groom or bride loves outdoor adventure, West Virginia Adventures can help you create the perfect weekend experience for an unforgettable send-off into married life.
Start Planning Now
If you’ve taken on the task of organizing the bachelor or bachelorette party, don’t leave planning until the last minute. When planning for a group, it’s important to book everything—from activities to lodging—well in advance to ensure availability for your entire crew. Secure a date that works for everyone, then connect with the adventure specialists at West Virginia Adventures to explore group rates and customized adventure packages.
Decide on Lodging
Where you stay depends on the experience you want to create, the time of year, and your group size. Planning a summer getaway for outdoor enthusiasts? Consider convenient campsites where you can relax around a campfire and swap stories after a full day of adventure. Prefer a bit more comfort? Choose from a range of options including cozy cabins or upscale vacation homes with amenities like hot tubs. For cooler seasons, a spacious lodge that accommodates the entire group—with room for games and indoor hangouts—is an ideal choice.
Choose Your Adventures
The New River Gorge and the nearby Gauley River are an outdoor recreation playground packed with more adventure than you can fit into one weekend. Narrow your choices based on the guest of honor’s favorite activities and the overall energy of the group. From adrenaline-pumping Class V whitewater rafting on the Upper Gauley to scenic rafting trips on the New River, there’s an experience for every thrill level. The region also offers incredible hiking, mountain biking, ziplining, and rock climbing—making it easy to build a bachelor or bachelorette itinerary everyone will love.
Bring on the Party
After a full day of outdoor excitement, the celebration is just getting started. Take a quick breather if you need it, then head out to enjoy the local nightlife. Staying near West Virginia Adventures means easy access to nearby bars, restaurants, and gathering spots, each with its own unique vibe. Start the evening with drinks, relive the day’s highlights over dinner, then head out for live music, dancing, or a relaxed night under the stars—ending the perfect adventure-filled celebration in style.
