Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox protected area Highland Wildlife Management Area is a Шаблон:Convert Wildlife Management Area in Highland County, Virginia. It consists of three separate tracts of land, centered on Jack Mountain, Bullpasture Mountain, and Little Doe Hill; elevations in the area range from Шаблон:Convert above sea level.[1]

With the exception of an Шаблон:Convert clearing on Jack Mountain that was once used as summer pasture land, the area is nearly completely covered by upland hardwood forest, consisting mainly of oaks and hickories. The Bullpasture River flows through the area and is regularly stocked with trout. The area is carefully managed to enhance wildlife habitat, including maintaining small clearings as open space for wildlife, and encouraging the growth of mast-producing trees to provide food.[1]

Highland Wildlife Management Area is owned and maintained by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. The area is open to the public for hunting, trapping, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, and primitive camping.[1] Access for persons 17 years of age or older requires a valid hunting or fishing permit, or a WMA access permit.[2]
