Mountain Overlook on Cooper Mill Road: Bald Eagle State Forest

Another often overlooked scenic overlook is the basic, but aptly named, "Mountain Overlook" on Cooper Mill Road in Bald Eagle State Forest. This understated spot does not even really have a name and it gives just a spectacular view of the valley and next set of mountains. This is off to the side of a state forest road and you basically just run into it as you are riding. The views are stunning and it is easily one of the best in the region. It is located very close to Sand Bridge State Park. but also on a very rugged state forest road that you need to be mindful of with road clearances and probably should not attempt in winter months. 

We have visited this overlook twice now, both times in randomly driving by it. It is pretty awesome and easy to find, though still quite remote. For more info on the bountiful overlooks within Bald Eagle State Forest, check out our guide to them.
