Nature Preserves

Home Nature Preserves

“In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks” – John Muir

The Potomac Valley Audubon Society manages over 500 acres of land on 4 nature preserves located in Jefferson, Berkeley, and Morgan counties of West Virginia. Each preserve is different and special in its own right. All of our preserves are open daily from dawn until dusk and we invite everyone to come enjoy their natural splendor!

Our Associate Director of Conservation and Operations, KC Walters, is always looking for new and eager volunteers to help with various projects at the preserves. Please contact her at Katelyn@potomacaudubon.org to volunteer!
