Ashland WMA lies in northern Lee County just south of Natural Bridge State Park and Red River Gorge. The area is almost entirely forested with extremely rugged, steep terrain and many high cliffs. Elevations range from 850 to 1,250 feet above sea level. Good to moderate populations of grouse, squirrel, furbearers, deer, turkey, and songbirds exist on the area. The hollow is surrounded by cliff lines characteristic of this portion of the state. Several man-made waterholes provide habitat for many reptiles and amphibians. No ATV’s, camping, horseback riding, or rock climbing is allowed on the WMA. Public hunting is provided by an agreement between Ashland, Inc. and the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. The area is open under statewide regulations for all game species.
