Marshall County’s Grand Vue Park is a unique, adventure-laden asset. Boasting a zipline canopy tour, 15 miles of recreation trails, an aquatic center, a par 3 golf course, miniature golf, a playground, ice skating, and more, it’s a place you can easily spend a week.
DISC IS FUN
Grand Vue Park has two disc golf courses. The Yellow Course is geared toward families and beginning players. The course is mostly flat and can be played in as little as 30 minutes. The Black Course is one of the best-ranked courses in the country and is the best course in West Virginia. The Black Course was designed by the 1986 World Champion Johnny Sias in 2009 and is geared toward advanced players. This course is over 9,400′ and a par 71. It covers hilly terrain and has stunning views of the park. Disc rentals are available at the gift shop or main office for $2.
PEDAL POWER
Grand Vue Park’s recently renovated mountain biking trails cover 21 miles of hilly terrain throughout the park with scenic stops along the way. The trail is marked with an orange diamond blaze system with a reflective border to aid night rides. The course is technical in some areas and is geared toward intermediate and advanced riders. There is a hiking and biking friendly 4-mile double track for novice and beginner riders. You can rent TREK Marlin 6 and X-Caliber 7 bikes in a variety of sizes. Hourly rental: $25 per hour per person up to 4 hours. Day rental: $60 per person 8-hour time slot. All rentals will include helmet and a keepsake Grand Vue Park water bottle.
