What activities are not permitted on State Game Lands?
Game lands provide many recreational opportunities, but there are limitations on what you may do on these properties. Legal hunting and trapping are common pursuits; in fact they’re encouraged. Other authorized activities, so long as they don’t damage property or habitat, include hiking, berry-picking, photography, fishing and canoeing. Mountain bike and horseback riding are permitted on designated routes during certain periods. Illegal activities include: camping (except along the Appalachian Trail for through hikers), swimming, tree-cutting and driving motorized vehicles on roads or trails. Battery-powered boats are permitted on Game lands waters, unless otherwise posted.
