Help Us Reach the Finish Line!
Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our members, donors, and friends, we are nearing our goal for our Spring Fundraising Campaign. Every gift has helped advance our mission of conservation, education, and research in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and we are deeply grateful for your support.
There’s even more good news: a generous supporter has offered a $5,000 matching challenge. Every dollar you donate will be matched dollar for dollar until the full $5,000 has been met—doubling the impact of your gift.
We’re almost there! If you’ve been considering making a contribution, now is the perfect time. Your gift—of any amount—will help us continue protecting natural lands, inspiring the next generation through environmental education, supporting scientific research, and sharing the remarkable natural heritage of our region with our community.

Hiking Options for Everyone
Our trail system covers an assortment of terrain throughout its 30 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 red, and 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 for purchase at Trillium House, the Wintergreen Resort Mountain Inn, and the Market at Wintergreen, has each trail labeled as easy, moderate, or difficult.
Wintergreen trails are maintained by The Nature Foundation at Wintergreen volunteers and staff. They are open to the public, so enjoy the beauty of Wintergreen!
