More about Bald Mountain State Forest...
The 764-acre Bald Mountain State Forest is made up of a mixture of native hardwood species and planted conifers. There are no designated trails but hiking is allowed throughout the property.
The forest gets its name from the prominent hill (no longer bald!) near its center. Before State acquisition, the area was undoubtedly bare of trees, as was much of Allegany County, due to extensive land clearing for agriculture and pasture.
