The Copeland Forest is a 4,400 acre Resource Management Area  in Simcoe County, Ontario,  Canada, owned by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forests. The size, beauty, and unfettered use of the forest by a wide variety of recreational users inspired an initiative to conserve the natural integrity of the forest and facilitate compatible recreational use.

In October 2015 the Copeland Forest Friends Association formed a Non-Profit Corporation, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the MNRF, and began offering memberships. The organization has been structured to ensure that all of the major recreational user groups are represented equally. There are many ways to join us including becoming a member, volunteering, making a donation, and signing up for our newsletter. We look forward to seeing you in the forest!

The ice storm in the early spring led to extensive clean up and re-opening of all the trails in the Forest. The CFFA as well as other community volunteers worked many hours and days to make the forest safe and open for all to continue to enjoy this unique environment. Beyond the ice storm cleanup, the CFFA worked on trail improvements, invasive species control, ecological studies of the Forest, water testing of the watershed and new updated signage. All the work the CFFA does is based on membership renewals along with donations received at renewal time as well as support from our generous community benefactors. ... See MoreSee Less

The Copeland is a special place in winter. When the snow is deep, the air is crisp and the sunlight is filtering through the canopy, the forest in winter becomes one of our favourite times to snowshoe, walk or ski through the beautiful terrain of the Copeland.Should you be walking or snowshoeing and encounter the Horseshoe resort trails we ask forest users to respect the trail grooming and stay to the left edge of the groomed trails. The Horseshoe Resort is a valued supporter of the Copeland Friends and many of our membership enjoy skiing the beautiful trail network.We urge everyone to get out there and enjoy the forest this winter.. ...
