}}Cavalier Wildlife Management Area is a {{convert|4550|acre|km2|adj=on}} Wildlife Management Area in Chesapeake, Virginia. It preserves habitat for a number of species, including black bear, canebrake rattlesnakes, white-tailed deer, eastern wild turkeys, and many varieties of songbirds.[2]

The preserve comprises two separate tracts of land. The {{convert|3800|acre|km2|adj=on}} main tract is located about {{convert|2.5|mi|km}} east of the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge and adjacent to the Virginia–North Carolina border; it was once a part of the Great Dismal Swamp but was drained more than 200 years ago. The main tract today is typified by recently logged forestlands planted with young pine.[2] A smaller, {{convert|758|acre|km2|adj=on}} tract lies about {{convert|6|mi|km|spell=in}} north of the main area of land, immediately adjacent to the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge.[3]

The area is open to the public for seasonal hunting, trapping, fishing, hiking, and primitive camping. Firearms are prohibited in the Dismal Swamp tract, where only bow-hunting is permitted; firearms may be used for hunting within the main tract. Neither area permits horseback riding.[2][3]

Cavalier Wildlife Management Area is owned and maintained by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.[2] Access for persons 17 years of age or older requires a valid hunting or fishing permit, or a WMA access permit.[4]
