Reviews
"Beautiful day for a walk in the woods. These 3 beautiful horses were on the trail as well."
"This was a great place, we where doing a cub scout 3-mile hike. We took a bit of a tough trail but made it through safe. Trails were tagged along the way. Only reason I gave it a 4 star was the entrance to the start of the trail was very bad shape with large holes. There is another area to park so just avoid the main parking area."
"Couldn't get through to the parking area via CCC Road because of deep ruts. Our Kia Nero bottomed out. Parked in the trailer area instead. The trail is wide and fairly level. Lots of muddy areas. Encountered a couple of horse riders. Trailhead has maps available."
"Upton State Forest is an amazing place to hike, run, bike, walk your dog....feels like you are in the far northern woods in a quiet serine place. The park road/Loop road hike is a nice 5K loop. Clockwise you have "half mile hill" about 2M into the loop. Reverse puts the hill at the end of your first mile and a nice gradual climb for the last 1.5M. Go out and back to the end of park road added to the loop and you have a 5M route. Want to do single track trails? There is lots to explore. I did all of my Appalachian Trail training here as well as my first 15M Trail race. Keep your eyes open for wildlife and remains of old settlement ruins from the 1800s. Keep in mind you need to bring water and the 10 essentials for hiking. Cell service is spotty."
"Great area for a bike ride! Narrow light traffic roads with gorgeous houses, flowers, and natural scenery! Exciting ride with plenty of nature and water bodies to explore. We have hybrid bikes so we were also able to take them on a wide path which had very light foot-traffic. Fairly hilly area so if you choose to bike or even hike, be ready to ascend and descend a bit, keep that head on a swivel, and most importantly enjoy your time!:)"
