The Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge contains more than 111,200 acres of contiguous forested wetlands.

A wide variety of wildlife can be seen by hikers and bikers along more than 80 miles of trails.

Lake Drummond, a 3,100-acre natural lake, is situated in the center of the swamp. The lake is accessible year-round from the east via the Feeder Ditch, with a 1,000-pound vessel limitation at the spillway boat lift.

A special use permit will allow seasonal boat access from the west via the Railroad Ditch entrance.

Resident species include white-tailed deer, river otter, bats, mink, bobcats, snakes, turtles, and black bear. More than 200 species of birds have been identified on the refuge.
