There are plenty of fun activities to do on the refuge, but keep in mind, if an activity is not wildlife related and doesn’t help in the protection or understanding of wildlife or their habitat, there are probably refuge rules governing this activity. If you have any questions about a certain activity, please feel free to contact the refuge office.
While on the refuge for all emergencies please call 911. To report refuge violations call the administrative office at 256-848-6833.
