More about Leonard Hill State Forest...

The 1617 acre Leonard Hill State Forest is located near Broome Center in southeastern Schoharie County. The main feature is an old fire tower that still stands on the summit of the 2605 foot Leonard Hill. The bottom steps of the fire tower have been removed, so there is no way to climb the tower. A 1.6 mile truck trail leads to a overlook and the fire tower. The view includes the Blenheim-Gilboa Reservoir and Utsayantha Mountain in the distance. There are a couple of primitive campsites located near the fire tower.

  • I camped at the site in your picture by the tower on leonard hill on 10/17/2015 with my grandchildren very cold but exceptionally beautiful I have been going there for more than 30 years with family and friends. It’s one of those rare places that haven’t been changed and kept pristine.
