Hiking
At Ernest F. Hollings Ace Basin National Wildlife Refuge
Visitors can walk the network of service roads, dikes, and trails to discover the wildlife and plants who call the refuge home.
The Combahee Unit has a three-mile service road for hiking from which you can view managed impoundments that support a variety of wildlife.
The Edisto Unit has 3 designated hiking trails:
- Goose Pond - 0.86 miles
- Alexander Pond - 0.51 miles
- Perimeter Pond - 1.53 miles
Goose Pond and Perimeter Pond trails have photo blinds that offer excellent viewing of wildlife.
There are also open areas to observe wildlife along impoundments and riverbanks. About 25 miles of unpaved service roads through rice field dikes, old fields, and upland forest areas are open for hiking and biking year-round.
