Geneva State Forest, Nature reserve in Geneva County, United States.
Geneva State Forest is a protected nature reserve covering roughly 7,200 acres of longleaf pine woodland in southeastern Alabama. The property includes a 100-acre lake and a network of maintained trails available to visitors.
The Jackson Lumber Company transferred this land to Alabama during the Great Depression. The Civilian Conservation Corps later planted new tree seedlings across the property.
The forest demonstrates Alabama's commitment to preserving longleaf pine ecosystems, with the tree species recognized as the official state symbol.
The forest is open to visitors daily for fishing and hiking activities. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable conditions for exploring the trails and enjoying outdoor recreation.
The forest applies a three-stage management system of preparatory cutting, establishment cutting, and removal cutting to maintain natural tree regeneration.
