A Wisconsin state forest is an area of forest in the U.S. state of Wisconsin managed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources's Division of Forestry. They are managed for outdoor recreation, watershed and habitat preservation, and sustainable forestry. The various units total 471,329 acres (1,907 km²), although many contain extensive private inholdings. Wisconsin's state forests are often co-listed with Wisconsin's state park system, which is maintained by the Division of Parks and Recreation.
