Larose Forest

Larose Forest is a man-made forest in the United Counties of Prescott and Russell, Ontario, Canada. It is about 60 kilometres (37 mi) east of Ottawa, straddling the boundary of Clarence-Rockland and The Nation municipality. The 10,944.7-hectare (27, 045-acre) forest, part of the 71,100,000 hectares (176, 000, 000 acres) of forest in Ontario, is named after Ferdinand Larose, and is owned and managed by the county. Recreational activities in the multi-purpose forest include hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, hunting and trapping, animal watching, and horseback, ATV and snowmobile riding. The forest is also used for small-scale logging operations. The forest is the second-largest man-made forest in southern Ontario and in 2011 was called an "unappreciated world leader as an example of environmental sustainability."
