Perry State Forest
6665 Cutler Lake Road
Blue Rock, Ohio 43558
740-674-4035
Whether you come to Perry to Ride APVs (all purpose vehicles), go horseback riding,
hunt or just visit, you will have an enjoyable state forest experience. Much of Perry
State Forest was strip mined for coal prior to existing reclamation law, resulting in very
rugged, sometimes barren terrain. Since the state acquired the area in 1961, some
reclamation has been accomplished, including a large area along CR 48. Several
reforestation and test tree planting have been established on the forest.
The Perry APV area is the most popular public riding area in Ohio. Miles of challenging
trails are open. Picnic tables and latrines are provided at the parking area.
Perry State Forest has a very scenic, day-use bridle trail system. Parking for horse
trailer rigs is provided along County Road 48. The Miles Lake water is suitable for
horses.
The diversity of forest cover encourages a variety of wildlife species and hunting
opportunities.
