Forested Land in Bath County, VA

Bath County is one of the most heavily forested counties in Virginia, with George Washington National Forest covering much of the landscape. The Allegheny hardwood forests here — oak, hickory, maple, and cherry — are mature stands that have been growing since the last timber boom ended decades ago. For buyers seeking timber value, hunting land, or total seclusion under a forest canopy, Bath delivers. PerfectPlace verifies forest cover percentage on every parcel using NLCD satellite data, distinguishing mature forest from recently cleared or managed land.
