Mount Nebo Wildlife Management Area is a hunting area owned by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. The area is known for Grouse and Woodcock hunting. It is also a great birding spot and a good place to look for Ruffed Grouse, Veery, Canada Warbler, Golden-winged Warbler, Chestnut-sided Warbler etc.
From the parking area, walk down the road beyond the yellow gate towards the wetland area at the bottom of the hill. There are roads and trails off to the left as you go down the hill or continue on to the wetland and explore the fields on the right (North) after you walk past the wetland.

DIRECTIONS: From I-68 at Keyser's Ridge, take MD 219 south toward Oakland. Mt. Nebo is approximately 3 miles north of Oakland along the west side of MD 219. There is a small parking area that can be accessed by going out the unimproved road west of 219.
