Bear Swamp State Forest

Welcome to the Bear Swamp Nordic Ski Trail. Located on two state forests of 3,316 acres in Cayuga County, this area is known for the large wetland and creek that bisect the forest. The ski trail system, over 13 miles in length, was developed with volunteer help in the 1980′s. The trail has become increasingly popular, and in 1993 DEC made improvements and produced the brochure you are viewing. This brochure is intended to help you enjoy the ski trail and inform you about the area. Enjoy the Bear Swamp State Forest.http://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/34420.html
