"The Oakley Corners State Forest Multiple Use Trial System has been designed to offer family-based recreation for hiking, mountain biking and cross-county skiing. Trails are available to serve beginners, intermediate and advanced users. Horseback riding and snowmobiling are not permitted on the Multiple Use Trails.

The 13 mile Oakley Corners Multiple Use Trail System is a cooperative effort between the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Division of Lands and Forests, and volunteers from the Volunteer Stewardship Program.

The trails are marked with circular trail markers. All trails are designated by color and number. Trail head parking is provided along Hullsville and Dutch town Roads. There is a small parking lot near the north gate and another on Hullsville Road that provide easy access to the trails and the ponds. The trails are classified by the users ability. Beginner trails have very gentle slopes and are fairly short in length. Intermediate trails have gentle to somewhat steep slopes and are moderates in length. Advanced trails have gentle to steep slopes and some sections with difficult side slopes. These trails are usually longer in length than intermediate trails."
