DWR Elk Viewing Tours

Price: $20.00 a person

Address: 1124 Chipping Sparrow Road, Grundy VA 24614 (Southern Gap Outdoor
Adventures Visitor Center)

The Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources is offering public elk-viewing tours in partnership with Breaks Interstate Park. Evening bus tours will travel through private lands with special permission from the landowners to view elk habitats that are otherwise inaccessible to the public. The bus will follow the same route as the elk tours offered by Breaks Interstate Park and Southern Gap Outdoor Adventures. However, DWR tours will have 2 agency staff members available per tour to share information and answer questions about elk and other wildlife.

Tours will last approximately 3 hours. We will have one or two designated stopping locations along the way where you can get out of the bus to see the elk. However, the tour and viewing of the elk will primarily take place from the bus. Tours will start and end at Southern Gap Outdoor Adventures Visitor Center, where restrooms will be available, along with one stop during the tour. Each tour will be limited to 25 guests. Registration is required via this FareHarbor booking page.

We suggest bringing a camera, binoculars, and water. Plan on wearing footwear appropriate for the outdoors and bring a raincoat and an extra layer. (There will be some opportunities to get out of the bus.)

*Participants under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.

*Pets are NOT allowed on the tour.

*Meals are not provided.

*Unless otherwise instructed, please remain within arm’s reach of the bus.
