Trail Overview
Explore a blackwater oasis along the Savannah River in Hampton County. The major property is the Webb Wildlife Center with the Palachucola and Hamilton Ridge areas on either side. Many of the trails through the property cross between these three areas; it is to be noted that gates can close with no upfront notice due to scheduled/special hunts, flooding, and/or management use. Foot Travel and Bicycles are permitted beyond gates and barricades unless a hunt is taking place. This route begins as the main highway and will follow Bluff Lake Road taking you deep into the area and ending at Bluff Lake. Along the way, you will pass through the heart of the property with all of the ruins of the plantation where racehorses were trained up until the 1940s when the state purchased the land. There is a small boat ramp for launching canoes and kayaks to venture out onto the lakes and onto the Savannah River.
