Hunting Schedule for Forks of the River WMA
Please note that dove season is currently on at Forks of the River! Please steer clear of the trails at the WMA during hunt dates.
Recreation will be limited to the paved greenway only: September 22-23, November 3-18, and December 22-23.
Partnerships, coordination, and sharing our resources have brought us where we are today, so please take a moment when planning your adventures to keep yourself informed on hunting season dates in the FOR Wildlife Management Area!
We will update the club via club list serve, social media, and onsite signs.
