SaveThe Appomattox-Buckingham State Forest includes 20,000 acres of forest for outdoor recreation, hunting, hiking and fishing. Trails are available for horseback riding or mountain biking.
The Appomattox-Buckingham State Forest (ABSF) is Virginia’s largest state forest, covering 19,513 acres in Appomattox and Buckingham counties. It is managed for sustainable timber production, demonstration of scientific forest management, applied forest research, diverse wildlife habitat, watershed protection, biological diversity, and passive outdoor recreation.
Slate River Reservoir and Holliday Lake are located within the forest, along with Holliday Creek and numerous other streams. Rock formations along Holliday Creek and the Appomattox River resemble mountain streams found farther west in Virginia.
Several multi-use trails provide recreational opportunities on the forest. ABSF pays 12.5% of its revenue from timber sales to Appomattox and Buckingham Counties in lieu of taxes. The remaining 12.5% is then designated to enhance recreational opportunities on the forest.
