Outfitters and Guides

OUTFITTERS AND GUIDES

Hiring a guide to enjoy the Monongahela National Forest can make your outdoor experience safe, convenient, and educational. Many of the guides have decades of experience in their field and can offer a variety of opportunities to meet your needs.

 

Outfitters and guides using the Monongahela National Forest are authorized to do so through a special use permit. To determine if a guide is permitted to guide on National Forest land, you can ask to see their Outfitting-Guide Contact Card which will include the business name, guide name, permit identification number, and expiration date.

How and when to Apply for an Outfitter Guide Permit

For more information, call the Special Use Coordinator, Laura Hise, at 304-636-1800.
