Blackbird State Forest, spanning 6,000 acres across New Castle and Kent Counties in Delaware, offers 40 miles of trails for hiking, running, walking, cycling, and horseback riding, The forest is somewhat of a patchwork of different areas (there are ten tracts in total), but the Tybout Tract is the largest and most popular, and is where the headquarters and the Blackbird State Forest Education Center is located. The Tybout Tract includes a short wheelchair-accessible nature trail, making it inclusive for all visitors, in addition to several other, longer, popular hiking loops. Besides these activities, the forest supports hunting, fishing, picnicking, and primitive camping.
