Location of Berwind Lake Wildlife Area Berwind Lake Wildlife Area Berwind Lake WMA, in McDowell County, is one of the larger Wildlife Management Areas in West Virginia, containing approximately 18,000 acres of rugged mountain terrain common to the southern portion of the state. Elevations range from 1642 feet to 2628 feet and the majority of the area is heavily forested. Oak and hickory dominate the woodlands, which also have some beech and maple cover. A small percentage of the area consists of brushlands which were created by timber cutting, old log landings, skidder trails and abandoned strip mines. Most of the open land is located around Berwind Lake near the picnic areas and swimming pool. Hunting is managed for forest game. Hunt for turkey, squirrel, raccoon, and grouse. You can also hunt for whitetail deer by bow only. Fish the 20 acre lake for largemouth bass, trout, channel catfish, and bluegill. There are foot trails surrounding the lake. You can also fish off of the fishing pier. There is a boat launch. Boats may use electric motors only. |
