You'll find the famous Otter Creek Horse trail system just 3 miles away, home to over 60 miles of trails for horseback riding or hiking all on NYS Land and Forever Wild areas.
Hiking trails continue 2.5 miles over at Otter Creek State Forest. This 1206-acre track not only serves as a top-notch hiking route, but also a great brown trout fishing destination. Be sure to bring the camera along to capture the steep ridges, gentle rapids, and stunning landscapes that make up the scenery.
Be bold and adventurous in Independence River Wild Forest. This 76,000 acres of forest also sits just 3 miles away - a must-visit while you're here! Hike the road-less-traveled to Big Otter Lake, which headwaters Otter Creek and is part of the Han-De-Ron-Dah wilderness.
This Property is located near the Famous Otter Creek Horse Trails. Adjacent to the western edge of the Adirondack Park to the east of Lake Ontario, south of Lowville in Lewis County are two public forest areas managed by the State Department of Environmental Conservation, (the DEC): the Independence River Wild Forest, and the Independence River and Otter Creek State Forest. There are arguably 65 wonderful miles of riding trails through these two adjacent wilderness areas. They are called the Otter Creek Horse Trails. The Otter Creek Horse Trails are a series of old sandy roads and wooded trails that traverse a beautifully diversified region, populated with wildlife. Once off the sandy roads, the trails wind their way along sand flats and through wooded areas, access picturesque glacial ponds, and have climbs that lead to fine river vistas. If you and your horse like water, the trails follow or cross the Independence River and no less than seven smaller waterways: Otter, Little Otter, Beaver Meadow, Chase, Burnt, and Crooked Creeks. All eventually flow into the Black River that continues on north into Lake Ontario. It's truly a beautiful area in any season of the year. Yes, even in winter.
This southern Lewis County gem is also near other Large NYS parcels of land . Independence Wild Forest is 76,000 acres forever wild. The Otter Creek State Forest is just upstream about 2 miles and is 1200 acres of great fishing and hiking.
When the cold weather comes in, this high-elevation spot transforms into a snowy paradise! Enjoy snowmobile trails close by, or trailer snowmobiles to the designated parking area at the trailhead found 3 miles down the road.
