Adventure Outside with TNFW

Our trail system covers an assortment of terrain throughout its 35 miles. There are both rugged, steep slopes as well as beautiful, short strolls almost anyone can enjoy. The unique environment on both the valley trails and the mountain trails at Wintergreen offers hikers an unforgettable experience.

The trail system is divided into three types of trails: access trails, perimeter trails, and valley trails. Access trails are blazed in yellow, perimeter trails in redand valley trails in blue. Besides the map and tree blazes, there are signs at intersections with trail name, direction, and blaze color.

Our trail map, which is available to purchase at The Trillium House, Mountain Inn resort and Blackrock Grocery store, has each trail labeled as either easy, moderate, or difficult.

Wintergreen trails are managed by The Nature Foundation at Wintergreen volunteers and staff. They are open to the public, so enjoy the beauty of Wintergreen!

Wintergreen is a Bear Smart Community

The primary rules are simple and clear:

No bird feeding from April 1 to December 1, never leave food or garbage outdoors, be aware that open doors and windows risk getting a bear inside, and lock all car doors because bears can and do open vehicle doors.

Wintergreen’s black bears are out and about. Learn more about these amazing animals and how to keep them wild.

Also, check out Matt Overstreet’s presentation on Virginia’s rising American black bear population and the website BearWise.
