Photography

At Ernest F. Hollings Ace Basin National Wildlife Refuge

Photography is one of the more popular activities at E.F.H. ACE Basin NWR, for both amateur and professional photographers alike. Photographers find beautiful natural landscapes, wildlife, and historical structures all as a subject option. 

When staff are at the Manor (the refuge headquarters), visitors can enter the contact station room on the first floor to watch a video of the ACE Basin area and pick up trail maps and materials for the refuge. Otherwise, maps are placed outside the manor house. If the entrance gate is closed to the grounds, parking is outside the gate, and visitors can take photos and walk the trails. 

If you would like to photograph birds, please see our bird brochure to know what species you can expect.
