Roseboom State Forest

About

Roseboom State Forest is a 620-acre state forest near Cooperstown, with a mix of planted and natural tree species spread across the landscape. The land was purchased in the 1960s for conservation, reforestation and the development of natural resources. It is a quiet place for a walk away from crowds.

There are no marked trails, but the wide, unmarked paths and well-kept access roads are easy to follow. That makes the forest a simple choice for walking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, as well as hunting and fishing for people who enjoy those activities.
