About Buxton Woods Reserve

On Hatteras Island, the Buxton Woods Reserve occupies the area between Buxton and Frisco. Cape Hatteras National Seashore forms its southern boundary, while N.C. Highway 12 borders it to the north.

Visitors can reach the reserve’s interior by way of two unpaved roads leading south from N.C. Highway 12. On the Buxton side, Old Doctor’s Road leads into the eastern portion. Water Association Road serves the western portion near Frisco. Trailheads along both routes connect Buxton Woods Reserve to Cape Hatteras National Seashore.
