Summersville Lake and Fisherman’s Cove GPX Track

I need to offset my substantial website costs somehow! You can download a hike/drive GPX to assist you here. Before sharing my GPX tracks with others, please remember my site is otherwise a free resource.

Though used primarily for climbing access, the hike to the Orange Oswald cliffs overlooking Summersville lake is beautiful. Make it a loop by swimming over to Pirate's Cove, or go back and find the less-beaten trail.

Hire me or show me some love!

Hire/refer me as a web developer or send me a few bucks if you find my site useful. I'm not sponsored, so all fees are out-of-pocket and my time preparing trip reports is unpaid. I really appreciate it!
