If you're looking for a unique culinary adventure, head to Marlinton, West Virginia, for the annual Roadkill Cook-Off and Autumn Harvest Festival.

The festival isn't just about the food; it's a celebration of autumn in the heart of the Appalachians. Visitors can enjoy live music, arts and crafts, and plenty of family-friendly activities like hayrides and a car show. There’s even a "Roadkill Pageant" where contestants vie for the title of Miss Roadkill.



Whether you’re an adventurous eater or just looking for a fun day out, the Roadkill Cook-Off and Autumn Harvest Festival is an experience you won't forget. This one-of-a-kind event captures the spirit of the region, blending humor, tradition, and community in a way that’s uniquely West Virginian. So, grab your fork, bring your curiosity, and join in on the fun!
