More about Newfield State Forest...

Newfield State Forest encompasses 1,552 acres and is located in the town of Newfield in southwestern Tompkins County on a hilltop that sits high above Pony Hollow. It is a perfect place for activities that can be enjoyed in a primitive forest setting, such as hunting and nature observation. The State Forest is part of a block of nearly 14,000 acres of public open space managed by the DEC. The forest is connected to the DEC managed Connecticut Hill Wildlife Management Area which covers over 11,000 acres.

There are no formal trail networks within the forest. Many game species, such as white tail deer, fox, turkey, raccoon, mink and squirrel are found to be quite abundant within the forest's boundaries, making hunting, nature observation especially enjoyable.
