Adventure brief
Five Days on the Hatfield McCoy Trails: 1–4 Passenger Side‑by‑Side Rental from Downtown Welch
Coaltown ATV Rentals bases its five‑day Side by Side program in downtown Welch, West Virginia, offering direct access to the Southern systems of the Hatfield McCoy Trails. The operator partners with CoalTown Camping and Recreation and Kimball ATV Hideaway to stage vehicles and support guests, and provides pickup or delivery for renters — with free delivery for guests staying at partner properties such as Kimball ATV Hideaway (excluding Delbarton Cottage).
Located in Welch, West Virginia, the Five Day ATV Rental offers an unforgettable way to experience the rugged Hatfield McCoy Trails, a network of over 700 miles weaving through the Appalachian Mountains. This region is famed for its dense hardwood forests, steep ridges, and winding river valleys, which combine to create a playground for off-road enthusiasts. The business, situated at 451 McDowell St, Welch, WV, partners with CoalTown Camping and Recreation and Kimball ATV Hideaway, providing free delivery to guests for added convenience.
The Hatfield McCoy Trails stand out as one of the premier trail systems in the eastern United States, built on reclaimed coal mining land that now offers a mix of challenging terrain and scenic views. Riders encounter a unique blend of geological features including rugged shale and sandstone outcrops, alongside tributaries that feed the Big Sandy River. These trails wind past dense stands of oak, hickory, and maple trees that blazon brilliant colors in fall. This area also holds cultural significance, named after the legendary Hatfield-McCoy feud, infusing a sense of local history into the adventure.
Five Day ATV Rental specializes in providing side-by-side vehicles perfect for tackling the varied terrain, from technical single tracks to wide forest roads. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced rider, the equipment and local partnerships make it easy to navigate and enjoy this expansive trail system. As a hub in downtown Welch, they offer riders a gateway to both high-octane excitement and the rich Appalachian landscape, supporting sustainable recreation by encouraging responsible trail use and respect for the local environment.
