Harbison State Forest, State forest in Columbia, South Carolina.

The 2,137-acre forest features 30 miles of trails through mixed pine and hardwood forests, intersected by streams leading to the Broad River.

In 1945, the South Carolina Forestry Commission acquired 2,201 acres near the Broad River, naming it after benefactor Samuel P. Harbison.

The Environmental Education Center conducts programs aligned with South Carolina academic standards, offering hands-on learning experiences about forest ecosystems.

Visitors must obtain permits for all activities, with daily passes costing $5 and annual passes available for $25 at designated locations.

This forest stands as one of the largest urban green spaces east of the Mississippi River, located just nine miles from Columbia's center.
