Pocomoke State Forest
The Pocomoke State Forest (PSF) consists of over 18,000 acres of forested land with the vast majority of it located in Worcester County between Snow Hill and Pocomoke City, with small parcels located in Wicomico and Somerset Counties. Pocomoke State Forest is characterized by large areas of loblolly pine, mixed pine-hardwood, bottomland hardwood, and bald-cypress swamp forests. The Cypress swamps, which are State designated Wildlands, border the Pocomoke River, which is a State designated Scenic River.
Pocomoke State Forest has over 25 miles of hiking trails available for day hikes or multi-day experiences. All trails can accommodate multiple user types, but we ask users to follow the traditional yield rules: Bikes yield to Horses and Hikers, and Hikers yield to Horses. There is no motorized or off-road vehicle recreation use allowed on Pocomoke State Forest or Chesapeake Forest trails.
Trail guides and maps are available for purchase at the Chesapeake Forest/Pocomoke State Forest and Pocomoke River State Park offices. The trail system varies in terrain, but is generally flat. There may be stream or road crossings or standing water on these trails. Visitors are encouraged to wear blaze orange during the hunting seasons. Remember, you are responsible for having the necessary skills, knowledge, and equipment for a safe and environmentally friendly visit.
The cache you seek is an ammo can along the Algonquin Trail. You can view the trail map here.
