}}Hughes River Wildlife Management Area is located in Wirt County and Ritchie County near Parkersburg, West Virginia. Located on {{convert|10000|acre}} that border both the Little Kanawha River and the Hughes River. The WMA terrain varies from river bottom to steep hillsides covered with second growth oak-hickory hardwood stands and younger pine-hardwood woodlots.[3]

To reach the Hughes River WMA from Parkersburg follow West Virginia Route 47 east about {{convert|15|mi}} to the Wirt County and Ritchie County line. The Hughes River WMA is located on both sides of the road at the Wirt/Ritchie county line.

Hunting and Fishing

Hunting opportunities include deer, grouse, squirrel, and turkey.[3]

Fishing opportunities abound in both the Little Kanawha and Hughes Rivers, and can include smallmouth bass, channel catfish, muskellunge, and panfish (including bluegill.)

Camping is not permitted in the WMA. Camping is available at nearby North Bend State Park.
