Mountain Island Educational State Forest is closed to the public at this time. In the future, the forest will offer recreational opportunities similar to the other Educational State forests. At present, Ranger conducted classes are available to come to your school or special event. You can find a listing of the classes offered in our Teacher's Guide section of this page.

All of our services are free. If you are interested in a class, a Project Learning Tree workshop, or you are just curious, send Forest Supervisor Laura Shidal a message at mountainislandESF.ncfs@ncagr.gov.

Call us at (704) 822-9518 to make program reservations. All services and facilities are free of charge.
