State Forest in the Town of
Centerville, Allegany County.

Description:
This forest was once populated by an Indian tribe that vanished with little
trace. Lost Nation State Forest is located north of the hamlet of Centerville on
North Hill Road. You can also access the state reforestation areas from
Lost Nation Road and off Pike Road. It is open to hiking, hunting and
camping. Tributaries of Sixtown Creek cross at Lost Nation Road.
There is a trail and small bridge that snowmobilers, hikers use to go over the
stream into the forest.
Located nearby, south of the hamlet of Centerville from Rushford Road, is Swift Hill State Forest. The Finger Lakes Trail passes thru the forest, excellent for hiking.
Cold Creek State Forest is at the
county line on Washburn Road, northeast of Lost Nation off Pike Road. Hume
village was once called Cold Creek. The stream was named from where it was
fed, Cold Spring, by native Indians. It joins into the Genesee River, east
of Centerville, at Fillmore.
