The New River

�Flowing 320 miles through North Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia, the New River is a true recreation destination for all outdoor lovers. As the only city in Virginia located directly on the river, Radford offers unparalleled access to the water at a number of different sites.Canoes, kayaks and inner tubes can also be easily dropped in the water at various points in Bisset Park, which extends more than 90 acres right on the banks of the New.Wade fishing is also extremely popular off the banks of Bisset Park near the Rt. 11 bridge that spans high above the New River. Whether its small mouth bass or giant muskie, the fish are almost always biting. In fact, Radford�s stretch of the New River has been the site of many state-record breaking catches in recent years.
