Wheeling Heritage Port

Located right on the river in downtown Wheeling, this breezy waterfront park is perfect for a sunny stroll along the Ohio River or a photo on the Almost Heaven swing. Check out the historic Wheeling Suspension Bridge, the world’s largest of its kind until 1851. The amphitheater hosts concerts and movies throughout the year (check the schedule), and you don’t want to miss the city’s annual Fourth of July festivities.

A riverfront park with green lawns and walkways lines the water’s edge, with red brick buildings and other city structures in the background, set against tree-covered hills under a cloudy sky.
