The Cranberry Wilderness is a wilderness area in the southern part of the Monongahela National Forest in southeast West Virginia, United States. It is located on the back-slope of the Allegheny Front. As well as being wilderness, it is designated as black bear sanctuary. It is called the Cranberry Wilderness because of the cranberrybog in a valley on the south side of the wilderness area, officially designated the Cranberry Glades Botanical Area.
This area is drained by the Williams River and the Cranberry River, both of which are tributaries of the Gauley River, which in turn unites with the New River to form the Kanawha River, which is a tributary of the Ohio River. The area just east of the Allegheny Crest, which is the border of the Cranberry Wilderness, is drained by tributaries of the Greenbrier River, which flows into the New River.
The wilderness is located in the Yew Mountains, which are part of the Allegheny Mountains. The highest point is 4620 feet (1516 meters) on Black Mountain on the Allegheny Crest, and lowest points are just under 3000 feet (about 1000 meters).
