Trail Description: The Otter Creek Horse Trails are a series of interlocking horse trails comprising about 65 miles. They are located on both the Independence River Wild Forest Unit of the Adirondack Forest Preserve and on the Independence River and Otter Creek State Forests on the western border of the Adirondack Park in Lewis County. There is an Assembly Area with a trail head parking area, 100 roofed tie stalls, two stud stalls, water system, three mounting platformsfor persons with disabilities and accessible toilet facilities. The trail system uses a series of old, sandy roads and woods trails to traverse a beautiful diverse area with the trails winding their way along spirea flats and wooded areas, accessing picturesque Adirondack ponds and following or crossing Otter, Little Otter, Beaver Meadow, Chase, Burnt and Crooked Creeks and the Independence River.

Campground is free and on a first come first serve basis. I do not know how many sites there are but there were 3 areas and an overflow area to camp in. Hoses must be kept in DEC tie stalls.
