Western New York Outdoors
A Parks and Recreation Guide to locations for outdoor adventures in WNY.

Hiltonville
State Forest in the Town of Birdsall, Allegany County.


Western New York Outdoors home

 

Description:

Coming from Route 16, turn onto Route 15B and you will cross over Black Creek and pass the Birdsall Inn.  You will then make a right onto a gravel road, Hiltonville Road, and continue to the State Forest.  This is a heavily wooded area and mostly undeveloped.  The Canisteo River crosses over Sullivan Road here.  There is a small pond further down Sullivan Road, hidden in the forest along a trail, near a NYS DEC marker.

Nearby, twice the size and just north of Hiltonville, is the Gas Springs State Forest.  This is also a very remote wilderness area.  It is common to see hunters during turkey and deer seasons here.  Always respect the many private properties located near these and any state land borders.
