Pike State Forest was placed under the management of Ferdinand State Forest in July 1997. The PikeState Forest consists of 2,939 acres in southwestern Indiana. Acquisition of the land that makes up PikeState Forest began in the 1930s, and continued through the 1950s. Most of the buildings on the propertywere constructed by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) using material cut from local timberstands.
Topography at Pike State Forest varies from hilly uplands to the low bottomlands of the Patoka River.Because of the diversity of sites, a wide variety of plant and animal life make their homes at Pike. Severalrecreational opportunities are available at Pike State Forest, including hunting, horseback riding,picnicking, bird watching and hiking. |
