About

Owen-Putnam State Forest offers a variety of activities, including hiking, deer, squirrel, and turkey hunting, and fishing in one of the ponds. Visitors can also enjoy horseback riding through the beautiful hills of south-central Indiana, including a view of a 50-foot sandstone bluff. The forest has developed areas, including the Forest Office, Fish Creek Campground, Horse Campground, and Rattlesnake Campground, which provide primitive campsites with vault toilets, picnic tables, grills, and parking spurs. The forest is a great destination for outdoor enthusiasts, with its scattered holdings and north-south orientation requiring care to avoid trespassing on private land.
