DAVIS — Visitors to Canaan Valley Resort Saturday can enjoy the natural beauty and warm spring temperatures in the highest mountain valley in the eastern United States while experiencing new activities designed to showcase — and capture — the region’s scenery.
“Canaan Valley is one of the most photographed locations in West Virginia,” said Sam England, general manager of Canaan Valley Resort. “We recognize guests are interested in getting outdoors while learning new things and the photography walk and workshop provide the perfect opportunity.”
England said Master Naturalist Vernon Patterson will lead guests on a two-hour Spring Photo Walk around the state park property from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. today. Participants will take pictures of their surroundings. There is no fee to participate, and guests should bring their own camera and binoculars.
For those interested in learning the basics of digital photography and using those skills to photograph the beauty of the area, the resort will host a Spring Photography Workshop from 2-5 p.m. today. An experienced instructor will provide tips and tricks for capturing a variety of spring scenery and then lead guests on a hike of the Club Run Trail. Guests must bring their own mirrorless or DSLR camera and there is a $25 fee to participate.
