Johnson Spring Fishing Access Site provides boat and wade access to a calm stretch of the Jackson River at an elevation of 1,286 feet, with a parking area accessible via Natural Well Road in Alleghany County.

The site serves as a popular starting point for float trips and wading, with better fishing water located downstream past the initial slow, deep section.

This is a Virginia Bird and Wildlife Trail location offering scenic views with mature sycamore trees along the banks.
