Is horseback riding allowed in any of the Roswell Wildlife areas? Either the marsh area south of Hwy. 18 or the habitat area north of Hwy. 18?
Answer:
The Roswell Marsh area south of Highway 18 does not accommodate horseback riding. There are no appropriate entry locations and It is intended for pedestrian access only. It is also subject to a total entry closure from February 1 through July 31 each year for nesting season.
The remaining IDFG lands in the vicinity of French road have no seasonal restrictions, but we would ask that area users keep in mind that the primary management objective is for wildlife habitat and request that deference be given to people using that area for wildlife based recreation.
