Warm Springs Mountain Preserve
A Key Wildlife Corridor
Situated within a 77,000-acre unfragmented, largely roadless forest, Warm Springs Mountain Preserve helps stitch together thousands of acres of forest and conservation lands in western Virginia’s Allegheny Highlands. The heart of this preserve protects a key wildlife corridor and habitat for an amazing diversity of natural communities, plants and animals. View videos and photos>>
Situated within a large, unfragmented forest, the preserve is home to rare plants and animals and provides key habitats for wide-ranging mammals like the black bear and bobcat. It also helps maintain a variety of natural communities, including healthy, breeding populations of interior dwelling songbirds. The preserve also features Virginia’s only substantial montane pine barren — a globally rare, arid, fire-dependent landscape — and protects headwater tributaries of both the Jackson and Cowpasture rivers.
