Running between Middle Mountain and Rich Mountain in Randolph County, the Laurel Fork Wilderness area lies along the Laurel Fork River. The least visited of any of the wilderness areas in the Monongahela National Forest, it provides great opportunities for solitude and a remote experience. Once owned by the Laurel River Lumber Company, the wilderness area has been allowed to return to its natural state.

Directions:
Go East from Elkins on US 33 to the top of Middle Mountain. Take FR 14 south. This road is the western boundary of both Wildernesses and several trails start from it.
