Bearwallow is an unincorporated community in Buchanan County, Virginia, United States.[1] Bearwallow is located in the extreme northeastern corner of the county on Virginia State Route 616, approximately 19.8 miles (31.9 km) east-southeast of Grundy. A short distance to the east of Bearwallow lies the intersection of Buchanan County with Tazewell County, Virginia and McDowell County, West Virginia.[2][3]

A post office was established as Bear Wallow in 1874 and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1951.[4] The community is named after the use of the area by bears to wallow.[5][6]
