The Woods Hiking Map is being updated!
New one coming soon...
Sleepy Creek Wildlife Management Area
Hiking is a favorite outdoor activity for Woods homeowners
and resort guests. Forest trails and country roads in and near The Woods
offer great hiking for everyone from serious back packers to those out
for a leisurely Sunday stroll.
Sleepy Creek Wildlife Management Area, a 23,000 acre near
wilderness bordering The Woods, is the first choice of many hikers. Its
70 miles of trails lead to beautiful Sleepy Creek Lake, Meadow Branch
Trout Stream, Devil's Nose, and the Power Line observation point.
The Woods developers shared a strong commitment to Sleepy
Creek. They preserved public access to Sleepy Creek at all major hiking
trails in their Mountain Lake Road resort communities - Sleepy Hollow
and The Woods. They contributed 202 acres to Sleepy Creek and helped West
Virginia's Department of Natural Resources acquire several hundred additional
acres of privately held interior tracts required to maintain the park's
integrity.
Note: Avoid hiking in Sleepy Creek during hunting seasons.
