The Crockford-Pigeon Mountain Wildlife Management Area, designated by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources as a conservation area, is a key part of the recreational activities in Walker County. Covering 20,000 acres, the conservation area provides opportunities for caving, camping, hiking, horseback riding, rock climbing, and endless other adventures.

*While there is no admission price for exploring the management area, a Go Outdoors Georgia Hunting, Fishing or Lands Pass license is required for most age groups.

Residents can purchase a one day Hunting/Fishing combo online for $5 (this is the cheapest option if you plan to partake in outdoor recreation on WMA property, even if you don’t plan to hunt or fish). Tourists can purchase a one day fishing pass for $10.

If you just plan to look at wildflowers or access the horse, bike, caving, hiking, rock climbing, parasailing and hang-gliding trails, and you want to make several visits throughout the year, residents can purchase an annual Lands Pass online for $30. The price is $60 for non-residents.
