Owen–Putnam State Forest in Spencer, Indiana, lies among the rolling hills of southern Indiana and serves both as protected woodland and an outdoor recreation area. Known for its blend of natural scenery and public use, it contains hardwood forest, trails, and campsites. Visitors use the area for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, camping, and hunting squirrel, deer, and turkey. One of its notable natural features is a fifty-foot sandstone bluff that rises within the hardwood woodland.
