A piece of the Air Line Trail carries you through the Salmon River State Forest, a haven for hiking, fly fishing and mountain biking, or just enjoying a picnic in nature. The Salmon River is as placid as you can get today, but in the 19th century the banks were teeming with mills. At North Westchester there were so many factories competing for waterpower that the grist mills had to run at night and the paper mill by day. The Blue-Blazed Salmon River Trail snakes through the park, and takes you over an important piece of heritage, which we’ll cover next.

Lots of room to explore the Salmon River. Walk or drive ( 4WD suggested ) through Golf road. Plenty of room to stop and fish or hike. The parking area offers lots of room to distance and there is a huge field for kids ( or dogs ) to run free. Walk across the street and visit the covered bridge.
