About Belington
Set along the Tygart Valley River in Barbour County, Belington is a quiet mountain town with deep roots and a relaxed pace of life. The river flows right through the heart of the community, shaping both its scenery and its laid-back character. Located along Route 250, the town gives residents affordable housing and a peaceful rural setting, all while keeping them within a quick twenty-minute drive of larger amenities and jobs in Elkins.
Living in Belington means easy access to the outdoors, with fishing and kayaking on the river and wooded trails up on Laurel Mountain. The surrounding hills are full of history from the early days of the railroad and the Civil War, and that heritage is still visible around town today. It is a welcoming place for people who appreciate quiet mountain scenery, close-knit neighbors, and the simplicity of small-town West Virginia.
