Buck’s Brook State Forest, also known as Chenango Reforestation Area # 20, consists of 2,178 acres located between State highway 26 and County highway 13 in the Town of Otselic in the northwest corner of Chenango County. A portion of the Finger Lakes Trail (FLT) traverses Buck’s Brook State Forest. The trail enters the forest on the northwest side along Ratville Road and traverses east and then south to where it exits the forest on Buck’s Brook Road near its junction with Rt. 26. The popular recreational uses of this forest are hiking, nature observation, snowmobiling and hunting. The Otselic River, which runs along Rt. 26, offers nearby trout fishing opportunities and is easily accessible due to the numerous DEC parking lots.
