Located within 50 miles of downtown Birmingham, the Cahaba River National Wildlife Refuge seemingly is a world away. Visitors consistently use one word to describe the scene: peaceful. The setting in central Alabama is simple, almost stark. That’s part of the appeal.
The Cahaba River National Wildlife Refuge is six miles east of the small town of West Brocton on County Road 24. Prepare yourself for a remote outpost, in contrast to most tourist sites. There is no visitors center, although guides are available at a kiosk along River Trace Road. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service website provides more information about the Refuge.
