Fishlake National Forest
Fishlake National Forest, National forest and nature reserve in Utah, United States.
Description
Fishlake National Forest spreads across a large area of mountains, lakes, and forests spanning several counties in central Utah. The landscape includes diverse terrain with dense woods, open meadows, and multiple bodies of water at varying elevations.
History
The forest was established in 1907 through the combination of two earlier forest reserves. This merger created the large connected forest area that visitors explore today.
Culture
Several Native American tribes made their home here for thousands of years, and their presence is still visible through archaeological sites scattered throughout the area. Walking through the forest, you might notice these historical markers that tell stories of the people who came before.
Practical
The forest offers several campgrounds, hiking and horseback riding trails, and lakes for fishing and boating activities. Spring through fall provides the best conditions for visiting, when most facilities and trails are fully accessible.
Did you know?
Hidden within the forest is Pando, an enormous colony of aspen trees connected by a single root system. This organism holds the distinction of being the largest living thing on Earth by total weight.
