Hoosier National Forest

The 202,000 acres that make up the Hoosier National Forest are located in nine counties in southern Indiana. Each county has communities near the forest that receive multiple benefits simply by being located near the national forest. 

Bloomington, Bedford, Orleans, Paoli, English, French Lick, Birdseye, and Tell City are just a few of the communities that occur in close proximity to the Hoosier National Forest.
