Chester-Blandford State Forest, Protected forest in Hampden County, Massachusetts.

Chester-Blandford State Forest extends across 2,776 acres of woodland terrain, featuring a network of trails and the 60-foot Sanderson Brook Falls.

The Massachusetts Department of Conservation acquired this land in 1924 from lumber companies, leading to its establishment as a state forest.

The Civilian Conservation Corps developed the forest infrastructure between 1934 and 1940, constructing trails, bridges, and recreational facilities.

Visitors can access the forest through two main parking areas at Boulder Park and Sanderson Brook Falls, with trails open from sunrise to sunset.

The forest contains historical remnants of small mining operations alongside natural features, combining industrial heritage with environmental preservation.
