According to the agency website: "Shandaken Wild Forest contains four different parcels, each with its own distinctive character. The many remnants of past industries: farms, sawmills, bluestone mining and tanneries, will intrigue those interested in Catskill history. The Lower Birch Creek Road parcel is a historic Catskill mountain farmstead. The Allaben parcel is largely undeveloped forest with primitive campsites. The Rochester Hollow area contains ruins of a former estate and a spruce plantation that is the John Burroughs Memorial Forest...
At Allaben there are two accessible campsites with accessible picnic tables and fire rings. The first campsite is located next to a small pond with a hardened area near the edge of the water for fishing. Continue past this campsite to the end of the road where a second accessible campsite can be found. There is an accessible seasonal port-a-john located at the cul-de-sac, adjacent to this campsite. An accessible informational kiosk is located at the first intersection, near the first accessible campsite."
*Please note: these recreation destinations are located in outdoor and natural settings. Although many steps are taken to preserve ideal trail and facility conditions, environmental factors can vary these conditions throughout the season.
