Step off the beach and into a quieter, wilder side of the Outer Banks as we head into the woods for a refreshing nature escape. This peaceful walk takes you into the Donal C. O’Brien, Jr. Sanctuary in Corolla—one of the last remaining stretches of untouched land in the northeastern Outer Banks.

Spanning more than 2,600 acres, this remarkable preserve protects a diverse landscape of marshes, upland maritime forest, and sandy beaches, offering a glimpse of the Outer Banks as it once was. Carefully managed by the National Audubon Society, the sanctuary plays a vital role in the North Atlantic flyway, serving as a crucial resting and feeding stop for migratory birds traveling the East Coast.

As we follow the nature trail, you’ll be introduced to the many bird species, wildlife, and plant life that call this sanctuary home—along with the seasonal feathered visitors that pass through each year. Keep an eye out for bird activity, animal tracks, and the rich variety of trees and native plants that thrive here. This guided walk covers approximately two miles and is perfect for nature lovers, birding enthusiasts, and anyone looking to slow down and reconnect with the natural beauty of the Outer Banks.
