Take a Wildlife Walk
Visitors who want a closer look at the Eastern Shore of Virginia Refuge are invited to walk the 1/2 mile interpretive trail which loops through mixed hardwoods, past an old cemetery, and out to the saltmarsh overlook. A climb to the top of a WWII bunker affords a panoramic view of refuge marshes, barrier islands, bays, inlets, and the Atlantic Ocean.
From the Visitor Center, visitors can walk the 1/2-mile butterfly trail which winds through a field of flowers, brambles, grasses and shrubs to the interpretive trail.
