| Camping: |
| Hiking and Camping
Hiking is available on many trails in the Susquehannock State Forest, though the main trail is the Susquehannock Trail System, an 85-mile loop through the forested hills and valleys of the region. It was created by joining together a number of old and new foot trails, logging roads and abandoned railroad grades. The trail originates at the district office along Route 6 in Potter County and extends south into Clinton County. The route is well-marked with rectangular orange blazes and is mostly comfortable walking with a few steep grades. |
| Trails: |
| All-terrain vehicle riding: During the summer months, a 43-mile-ATV trail is available within Susquehannock State Forest. The trail passes through Lyman Run State Park, where parking and sanitary facilities are located. A loading dock, as well as sanitary facilities and picnic tables, can be found adjacent to the forest district office.
Mountain biking: Mountain biking is permitted on state forest roads, timber sale roads and a trail that originates at the district office.
Horseback riding: Horses are allowed on all the state forest roads, timber sale roads and roads along pipelines. There are no trails designated for horseback riding. |
| Fishing and Hunting: |
| Fishing and Boating
Trout fishing is popular in several streams in the forest. KettIe Creek has a fly fishing only area, while one of its tributaries, Cross Fork Creek, has a wild trout fishery. Hammersley Fork provides trout fishing in a secluded area.
Hunting
Hunting for deer, bear, turkey, grouse, squirrels, rabbits and ducks is a popular use of the forest during designated sea- sons. Other than a few safety zones around buildings, hunting is permitted throughout the state forest. Four thousand acres are open to hunting by disabled hunters on ATVs with special permits. |
