Duke University Forest

Dedicated to the management, resources, ecological and environmental sciences, the 7,000+ acre Duke University Forest is unequaled by any other university as an outdoor forest laboratory, and there are a number of recreational pursuits allowed here as well. There are six sections to the forest with 45 separate entrances. Dogs are allowed in the forest and on all the trails before 10 am and after 5 pm,,, they must be well behaved, under their owner’s control, leashed, and cleaned up after at all times.
