About

Algonquin State Forest is a Connecticut state forest located in the towns of Colebrook and Winchester. The forest is managed for sawtimber, firewood, wildlife habitat and passive recreational activities. It offers opportunities for hiking, wildlife viewing, and letterboxing. The forest contains two areas of special ecological importance: Sandy Brook Natural Area Preserve and Kitchel Wilderness Natural Area Preserve, the later donated by Helen Binney Kitchel in 1961, both protected as Forever Wild by state statute.
