Discover the Forest

Have you ever wanted to explore a new place and just be yourself? Forests are a great place for outdoors adventure! The Discover the Forest website helps you find a park or forest near you. Once you've picked a spot, you can print out a book of ideas, learn to use a compass, and match animal tracks. Go exploring!

Watch the Discover the Forest video from the Forest Service.


Visit Discover the Forest to find a park near you.

I am a big explorer, I live next to a National Park and I have woods behind my house so that makes it easy for me to explore. Actualy I recently went on a hike. I also think that this program is really cool so you can find all sorts of places to find out about!

I like what emmierox33 had to say. I believe forests are beautiful....Most of them that is! Someday I hope to visit some more outdoor wonders.... Really, my house`s yard is a wonder in itself!
