The Slaterville 600 Natural Area is located on Hammond Hill, nearly encircled by the Hammond Hill State Forest.  The site has 416 acres open to archery and firearm hunting in the respective seasons.  The primary access is from the seasonally-open Hammond Hill Road.  Traveling southbound, look for an access lane to the west that leads to a small cabin.  If road conditions preclude driving to the entry, parking is available in a parking lot on the west side of Hammond Hill road where the road changes to seasonally open, approx. 3/8 mile north of the preserve entrance.  Additional access can be gained to other areas of the Slaterville 600 through State Forest trails.  Hunters please report any tresspass or unauthorized use of the cabin to the Botanic Gardens staff cudeerhunting@cornell.edu.
