google parking directions Disclaimer:
There is no trail building allowed in the Copeland Forest. In coordination with the MNRF, the Copeland Forest Friends Association (CFFS) works to ensure access to all users (hiking, riding, equestrian, anglers, hunters, snowshoeing, XC skiing) have equal access to the area. The CFFA helps promote enjoyable use of the forest by providing trail maintenance, parking lot plowing, and forest sustainability (garlic mustard pull, water testing). Unauthorized trail building will potentially put MTB acitivites at risk in the forest.
