Big Spring Bog Natural Area Preserve, Protected natural area in Grayson County, Virginia, United States.
The Big Spring Bog Natural Area Preserve spans 50 acres of terrain with rolling hills and contains Chestnut Creek, a tributary of the New River.
The Department of Conservation and Recreation established this preserve to protect rare wetland communities and maintain ecological diversity in Virginia's natural landscape.
Scientists and researchers study the preserve's cranberry glade wetland system to understand the relationships between native plants and wildlife in this environment.
Visitors must arrange access with a state-employed land steward before entering the preserve, as the area maintains strict conservation protocols.
The preserve contains a specialized wetland formation called a cranberry glade, which exists as an opening within a mixed oak-pine forest environment.
