Review:
Sam Houston National Forest is one of Texas’s four national forests. Sam Houston covers a massive landmass of 163,037 acres of forest land, and it contains many different species of flora and fauna to be enjoyed by visitors and locals. The forest is packed with hiking trails and camping, boating, fishing, hunting, off-roading, and horseback riding are also allowed here.
The management supports these activities with a number of shelters, pavilions, and other facilities. The forest also protects a number of important bird species, including the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker, and provides a winter habitat for the national bird of the United States, the bald eagle.
