Ground Rules
Adventure Responsibly
At Wild Human Preserve, we're committed to providing an epic adventure while ensuring safety and preserving the natural beauty of our land. To make the most of your visit and to protect both you and the environment, please follow these guidelines:
Security & Privacy
Lock the Gate: Your privacy is important to us. Please lock the gate behind you when you arrive and leave to maintain a secure environment.
Sustainability & Cleanliness
Pack In, Pack Out: Since there's no trash service, please take all your trash with you when you leave. Leave no trace, so others can enjoy their experience.
Eco-friendly Foraging: Feel free to forage responsibly, but ensure you leave some for others and allow for re-growth.
Pets & Wildlife
Dogs Welcome: Bring your furry friends, but keep an eye on them. Consider neighbors with dogs and chickens, and be mindful of wild animals. Let's maintain the peace and harmony of nature.
Check for Ticks: Nature's small inhabitants may cling to you or your pets, so be sure to check for ticks.
Fire Safety
No Fires in Pine Patch: The pine patch is extremely flammable. Please refrain from making fires there.
Communal Fire Pit: Enjoy fires at our designated communal fire pit near the stage, stocked with firewood. Off-ground fires are permitted in other areas.
Collect Firewood: Feel free to collect firewood in the pine patch, but do so responsibly.
Fishing Guidelines
Ponds Off-Limits: Our ponds are delicate ecosystems. Please avoid fishing there as we strive to keep them healthy.
River Fishing: The river is home to various species like smallmouth bass, trout, sunfish, and muskie. Enjoy fishing there and respect the natural balance.
Safety Precautions
Hiking & River Caution: Our paths are primitive, and the river can be swift. Move slowly, be cautious, and enjoy the natural wonders safely.
Emergency Care: In case of emergency, the nearest hospital is located at 125 HOSPITAL DR, SPRUCE PINE, NC, 28777, approximately 30 minutes away.
