Great Mountain Forest | Conservation, Education, Demonstration, Recreation

COVID-19 Update: Our office has reopened at 200 Canaan Mountain Road for limited hours. Please call ahead. Masks are required in the GMF office.

The forest trails are currently open to the public during daylight hours. To fully respect the forest habitat and the enjoyment of the forest by others, keep pets on a leash at all times and pack out all litter with you. Before entering the forest, sign in at East and West Gate kiosks or email info@greatmountainforest.org. Follow the CDC guidelines by keeping at least 6 feet of distance between you and any other hikers you encounter on the trails.
