Off-Road Vehicle trails in state forests closed until further notice
Due to the record rainfall received in the state and saturated trail conditions, the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) has temporarily closed designated trails for Off-Road Vehicle (ORV) use in Beartown State Forest, October Mountain State Forest, Pittsfield State Forest, Tolland State Forest, F. Gilbert Hills State Forest, Freetown State Forest and Georgetown-Rowley State Forest until conditions improve. Riding an ORV on wet trails can cause significant trail damage. For more information on each riding area, maps, directions and contact number visit www.mass.gov/dcr/forparks.htm. When conditions improve, the trails will be re-opened and notice will be given through local newspapers, and DCR website.
