Mountain biking destination
I went on a mild weekend in December and had a great time. This is a good place to go for non-technical riding when it is cold in other areas. There is a nice, non technical, loop of about 12 miles and many miles of FS roads to ride. Great place to ride in the fall and winter.

Visit the Conecuh National Forest and you're sure to find your place at Open Pond Recreation Area. The newly renovated recreation area is especially nice in early spring and during the fall and winter months. The area is open year round since South Alabama has a very mild winter, most times, and is hot during the summer months. It offers camping, picnicking, hiking and fishing.
Open Pond Recreation Area has an area strictly for picnicking. Also, available is a group shelter that was built in the 1930's by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). It retains its original distinct design and is interesting to those who enjoy CCC history. |
| History of the Area: |
| The National Reservation Commission established the Conecuh Purchase Unit in Escambia and Covington Counties on January 21, 1935.
On July 17, 1936, the Conecuh National Forest was created by presidential proclamation. The Conecuh National Forest initially contained 54,177 acres of cut-over and burned-over lands.
