Two ways to enjoy the park

Tomlinson Run State Park combines a wooded wilderness area with a developed recreation area in West Virginia’s Northern Panhandle. That variety makes it a useful regional option when one group wants a quieter walk and another is interested in seasonal recreation. Choose the part of the park that suits your day rather than assuming every facility operates whenever the park is open.

Match your plans to the season

The park publishes a spring-through-fall campground season, weather permitting, and individual activities have their own availability. Download the park map and confirm essential facilities before leaving East Liverpool. A shorter walk can fit into a mixed tri-state day, while a longer outdoor visit deserves its own block of time, with water, suitable shoes and a weather check.

Before you go

  • Choose between wooded trails and developed recreation areas in West Virginia’s Northern Panhandle.
  • Boat rentals, swimming and camping depend on season and conditions; check the park before traveling.

Park hours: The park publishes daily hours of 6 a.m.–10 p.m. Camping is seasonal and weather dependent; confirm facility availability before traveling. Published information
