It is part of a new challenge at Fair Hill, which was chosen as a pilot project for implementing ecosystem-based land management planning. An extensive 75-mile trail system of single track and dirt roads offer hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding. A trail map is available at the Fair Hill office. Three equestrian organizations maintain a permanent presence at Fair Hill. Individual horse owners lease more than 53 paddocks and buildings.
Events occur year-round, including fox chasing, organized trail rides and steeple chase races.
2,500 anglers are regular users of Fair Hills diverse fishery resource. Up to 10,000 adult brown and rainbow trout are stocked by DNR each spring and fall. Hunting at Fair Hill is by permit only. A three-month bow season starts September 15 through January 31 on a designated 650 acres. Grassland species such as the Bobolink, Eastern Meadowlark, and the Grasshopper Sparrow are regular breeders.
